Up In Flames Lyrics

What was I thinking
Can't concentrate
It's all so vivid, too close
I hallucinate

How come I could never
Keep a good thing together
A minute, an hour, and that's it

Where was I headed
When the cards got played
What I was going to take

I threw it to the the Earth
Ended up with enough, you get it
When it's up, forget it
Forget it

All I ever did was try but I missed
I'll go up in flames for this
'Cause it's

All I want
All I've invested
No sleep, I'll never risk it
I've done all that I can
I've done all that I can

Where was I headed through
When the call got made
Was I one to be erased

How come I could never
Keep a good thing together
A minute, an hour, and that's it

All I ever did was try but I missed
I'll go up in flames for this
'Cause it's

All I want
All I've invested
No sleep, I'll never risk it
I've done all that I can
I've done all that I can

I don't know where to begin
I don't know where to begin

I hear "when the cards got played" instead of "when the call got made." Great great song, though. Tragic that it's not on the new album.
