Standing at the crossroads of a dead-end street
Pressured like a secret that you cannot keep
Running to the darkness to escape the night
Dangling at the bottom of a rope held tight

It's all I can do without You
It's all I can do without You

Buying up tickets for a runaway train
Pulling at the latchkey on a rusty chain
Shaking hands with devils wearing angel's wings
Looking for the potion to the scorpion's sting

It's all I can do without You
It's all I can do without You

Without You, I can't live
Without You, I cannot live
Heart without hope
Breath without soul
Death without life
I cannot live without You

Guilty as a traitor behind enemy lines
Caught within the cogwheel of the daily grind
Tearing out the pages of a dog-eared book
Wiping off the bloodstains from a cross of wood
It's all I can do without You
It's all I can do without You

Without You, I can't live
Without You, I cannot live
Heart without hope
Breath without soul
Death without life
I cannot live without You

It's all I can do without You

The love of the lion, the fury of the dove
A fist of calluses in a velvet glove
A merciful tyrant, a silent judge
And a heart eternal wrapped in flesh and blood
Wrapped in flesh and blood

It's all I can do without You
It's all I can do without You

Without You
Oh, I can't live without You, I can't live
Without You
Oh, I can't live without You, I can't live
Without You
Oh, I can't live without You, I can't live
Without You
Oh, I can't live without You, I can't live
Without You
Without You
I can't live
