(Here I go again, heroine)

Layin' face down on the sidewalk

Here I go again, heroine

Layin' face down on the sidewalk

Here I go again, heroine

Stomach double knotted

Dizzy even up the light

As my bones turn to chalk

But every time I tried to pray

The windy city blew my faith away

For all my could-haves and my used-to-be's

You think that I'd have found myself some new beliefs

The fever broke the anchor made us lost kites

A tether free amphetamine you

Started sleeping on the train

To obliterate the pain

When the frost began to bite

Every time the morning came

I found another me that I could blame

For all my could have's and my used to be's (and the darkness inside me)

You think that I'd have found myself some new beliefs (in every hopeless tragedy)

For all my should have's and my hope to be's (hoped to be's)

I think it's time I found myself some new disease

At one point I thought maybe I should warn her

But such information is best reserved for our dark corners

So I lock the bathroom door and started forgetting my name

I annihilated all my pride to usher in my shame

For all my could have's and my used to be's (and the darkness inside me)

For all my could-haves and my used-to-be's (and the dark consists of me)

You think that I'd have found myself some new beliefs (in every hopeless tragedy)

For all my should haves and my hoped to be's (hoped to be's)

I think it's time I found myself some new disease
