All my roads are wet with tears and paved with regret You said you've forgiven all the cruel things I've said So I'm asking Mother Mary Hold me close when I can't sleep Safe in her arms, wasting away Living in the soft hell that I make (I'm out of control) Nowhere to go when you're away Living in the soft hell that I make My baby won't look at me I hear the bell toll Time and time again I'd burn away the life we tried to make Still, your loving eyes gazed down on me there in the flame So hold me Mother Mary I'm so tired but I can't sleep Under my Moon in retrograde Living in the soft hell that I make I feel like I'm dreaming all the time I played out the scenes inside my mind Baby, look at me I hear the bell toll My baby won't look at me Baby, look at me Living in the soft hell that I make I feel like I'm dreaming all the time I played out the scenes inside my mind
