I was lost, then I found you.
I never thought it would be this way.
Showed you my heart, I left it unguarded,
like a thief in the night you stole it away.
Now you're gone, the pain goes on and on.
I still hear you whispering to me through the shadows of the night.
Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.
You're just a number of the love lies.
All alone you call it survival,
he lost at love to a stranger's lines.
Walking the streets, searching with vengeance
for a face that he dreams of night after night.
Time goes on, all signs of life stolen, simple dreams were all broken.
Best of times become desperation but how many tears must you cry to survive?
Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.
Just a number of the love lies.
Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.
Just a number of the love lies.
They met late one night in the city.
Both men knew only one would stay.
Scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet
and took his life away.
Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.
Just a number of the love lies.
Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines.
You're running on into a cold night.
Just a number of the love lies.
I never thought it would be this way.

like a thief in the night you stole it away.
I still hear you whispering to me through the shadows of the night.
You're running on into a cold night.
You're just a number of the love lies.
he lost at love to a stranger's lines.
Walking the streets, searching with vengeance
for a face that he dreams of night after night.

You're running on into a cold night.
Just a number of the love lies.

Scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet and took his life away.... The solo then rocks and the next part of the song blows you away. Definetly one of their best earlier songs.
This song represents the emptiness from a broken heart suffered by the loss of a love to another, you are left to scratch and claw to retain those reflections from the memory pool of those moments filled with his or her love, doing anything to push away the emptiness that is waiting and will eventually find us. Those lucky enough to have a good support system can see the glimmer of light regardless of how small and eventually come out of the darkness, those who don’t are either consumed by darkness or succumb to the darkness and take their life.
