It doesn’t go away when
you’re trying not to stay
It doesn’t go away no matter the days
When trying to forget push it down
with cigarettes or better yet
Burn it up into a fire
but none of it goes
’cause I know what I know
and I know what I shouldn’t
It’s a loathsome truth between us now
Send it up in smoke
the embers all aglow
But it doesn’t go away
this aching old pain
Ooo oo ooooooo
No it doesn’t when you’re trying
No it doesn’t go away no matter the days
'cause I know what I know
and I know what I shouldn’t
It’s a loathsome truth between us now
If you’re on the level
If you’re on the level
Are you
If you’re on the level on the level
you can talk to me talk to me
If you’re on the level
I’m gonna level with you anyway
Are you flinty strong
To hang my secrets on
If you’re on the level on the level
you can talk to me talk to me
If you’re on the level
I’m gonna level with you anyway
Are you flinty strong
To hang my secrets on
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Come back dummy get it get home
Come back dummy never leave me alone
Bring some sweetness sugar your drug
Gimme sickness summa summa your love
’cause it doesn’t go away
even trying out the strays
No it doesn’t go away
no matter the days
Send it up in smoke the embers
even show oh oh oh
But it doesn’t go away
this aching old pain
