[Verse 1]I can't afford the price I pay, and I can't even pay the rentThey're coming at me every way, and there's no letting upI'm frightened by the threats they makeTake me down, and they'll bury meAnd if I run they'll chase me back againDrag me before I make the break[Pre-Chorus]I can't keep holding onIn a hideaway I needed to keep me from breaking downAnd I'm under[Chorus]Baby I can't carry on, dead and I've been buried onBaby I was one in a millionEven if our love was strong, take me down and let it fallBaby I was one in a millionAnd I was holdin', burnin', wakin', turnin'Tastin' blood and losin' timeI want to get a hold of myselfBaby I was one in a millionI want to get a hold of myselfBaby I was one in a million[Verse 2]Tears fall like acid rain and it burns me through the skinIt's taken everything from me, I've lost my innocenceThe bats bring the night to dayWatch them turn the sky to blackLike a gun that fires that sound againFrightens me until the bitter end[Pre-Chorus]I can't keep holding onIn a hideaway I needed to keep me from breaking downAnd I'm under[Chorus]Baby I can't carry on, dead and I've been buried onBaby I was one in a millionEven if our love was strong, take me down and let it fallBaby I was one in a millionAnd I was holdin', burnin', wakin', turnin'Tastin' blood and losin' timeI want to get a hold of myselfBaby I was one in a millionI want to get a hold of myselfBaby I was one in a million[Bridge]And I need itAnd I need itAnd I need itTo keep me from breaking downAnd I need itTo keep me from breaking downAnd I need itTo keep me from breaking downAnd I need itTo keep me from thinking I won't find my wings no more[Chorus]Baby I was one in a millionBaby I was one in a millionAnd I was holdin', wakin', tastin', losin' timeI want to get a hold of myselfBaby I was one in a millionBaby I can't carry on, dead and I've been buried onBaby I was one in a millionEven if our love was strong, take me down and let it fallBaby I was one in a millionAnd I was holdin', burnin', wakin', turnin'Tastin' blood and losin' timeI want to get a hold of myselfBaby I was one in a millionI want to get a hold of myselfBaby I was one in a million
