"Living On The Rocks" lyrics

"Living On The Rocks"

Stone cold sober
The party's over
Two of us, alone
Nothing to say
Three years together, such stormy weather
Relations don't improve, they only grow stale
We failed the test
Choosing second best
And it's so hard to cope, living on the rocks

Prone to first impressions
Midnight confessions
I knew we would be friends, but how near is close?
For heaven knows how much I tried
To keep the hurt inside
I fabricate and crawl
But where does it lead?
We failed the test...
Choosing second best
And it's so hard to cope, living on the rocks

Oh lord, you punish me
This can't be justice
You build up my hopes
Build up my hopes
To knock me down

We failed the test...
Choosing second best
And it's so hard to cope, living on the rocks
We all need love...
But we just don't give enough
And it's so hard to cope...
(So hard to cope...)

And it's so hard to cope!
Living on the rocks...
