Happiness, it's been no friend to me,

but forever after aint what it's all cracked up to be

Yeah I had a taste, you were my fantasy,

but I lost my faith when I hit reality

I don't need no Guru to tell me what to do,

when your feeling like a headline on

yesterday's news



Come on, come on, come on



Give me something for the pain,

give me something for the blues

Give me something when

I feel I've been danglin' on a

hang-man's noose

Give me something for the pain

give me something I can use

To get me through the night,

make me feel alright, something

like you



Loneliness has found a home in me,

my suitcase and guitar are my only family

I've tried to need someone, like they needed me

I opened up my heart, but all I did was bleed

I don't need no lover, just to get screwed,

they don't make a bandage that's going to cover my bruise



Come on, come on, come on



Give me something for the pain,

give me something for the blues

Give me something when

I feel I've been danglin' on a

hang-man's noose

Give me something for the pain

give me something I can use

To get me through the night,

make me feel alright, something

like you

Pull me under

Run through my veins

To a place

Where I feel no pain

Be the pillow under my head,

Give me cover when I'm in my bed

Take me higher than I've ever been

Take me down and back again

Come to me, be my disguise

Open your coat, let me crawl inside



Come on, come on, come on

Come on, come on, come on



Give me something for the pain,

give me something for the blues

Give me something when-aca
