"Hell And Back" lyrics - THE AIRBORNE TOXIC EVENT

THE AIRBORNE TOXIC EVENT
"Hell And Back"
(Mikel Jollett)

I held on as long as I could possibly
My blind faith pushing me to my knees
I felt the warmth of a touch
And it made me believe
I knew it well

I stood at the doorway hoping you might let me in
My head spinning 'round
My nerves jumping from my skin
I felt the stinging ragged cold of the devil's heart embrace
And I knew it well

[Hook:]
And you took me to hell and back
How many times can I walk away from you
My mind's like a one way track
And every one is taking me back to you
And you tell me just one more time
And you'll lie like you always do
And I know it well

I must've walked a thousand miles or more trying to keep you off my mind
I've knocked on a thousand doors I'm sure, just to see what I might find
I slept in the arms of a fallen angel crying next to me
And I knew her well

[Hook:]
And you took me to hell and back
How many times can I walk away from you
My mind's like a one way track
And every one is taking me back to you
And you tell me just one more time
And you'll lie like you always do
And I needed just one more lie then there's nothing that I can do
And I need it just one more time then I swear that I'll be through
Yeah I know it well

[Bridge:]
And you took me to hell and back
My mind's like a one way track
And you tell me just one more time
And you'll lie like you always do
Yeah I know it well

[Hook/End]
And you took me to hell and back
How many times can I walk away from you
My mind's like a one way track
And every one is taking me back to you
And you tell me just one more time
And you'll lie like you always do
And I needed just one more lie then there's nothing that I can do
And I need it just one more time then I swear that I'll be through
Yeah I know it well
Yeah I know it well
