[Verse 1]
Now I have nothing so God give me strength
'Cause I'm weak in her wake
And if I'm strong, I might still break
And I don't have anything to share
That I won't throw away into the air
[Chorus]
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
She was the light that I'd bless
She took my last chance of happiness
So God give me strength
God if
[Bridge]
She'd grant me her indulgence and decline
I might as well
Wipe her from my memory
Fracture the spell
As she becomes my enemy
Maybe I was washed out like a lip-print on a shirt
See, I'm only human
I want him to hurt
I want him
I want him to hurt
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Since I lost the power to pretend
That there could ever be a happy ending
[Chorus]
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
She was the light that I'd bless
She took my last chance of happiness
So God give me strength
God give me strength
[Outro]
Wipe her from my memory
I might as well
