Drained me dry down to the last drop

Pearls before swine, all flowers die

Tapped the last good vein

Don't know how to shut it off

Yeah, once you get me going

Once you get me going

I won't miss the feeling

My flimsy spine, unsuspicious mind

I was only being kind

But you mistook me for weak

And once I get going, hmmm

Going

Burning 'til broad daylight

Burning at both ends tonight

If I'm made of thin ice

You'd be wise if you thought twice

Spinning in an endless figure

What remains?

And now I think I'm losing my shape

Not a trace

No end and no beginning, figure eight
