One More Chance Lyrics

Well I ran and ran and ran like I was scared to know the answer
(One more chance)
Well I shouted "I'm a fool" and "I'm a broken legged dancer"
(One more chance)
And the chain that kept me locked inside the dark and dirty places
(One more chance)
Seemed to break and change into daylight and happy smiling faces
Then I laughed and laughed and laughed until I thought I'd laugh forever
And the girls I loved were warm and soft and touched me like a feather
And I felt for just a while that I might find a place to live in
But the laughing stopped and I knew then the time had come to give in

One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you now
I need a knife in every back
One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you now
I need a knife in every back

Do you know how much you have to pay to see a crucifixion?
Well it's free and you can also see the way to dereliction
Well you drink and think and think until you think it's getting lighter
But you're sick to death of one more day of trying to be a fighter
One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you now
I need a knife in every back

One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you
One more chance, and I am losing you now
