         A
Oh this heart was made of gold
Now it's blackened like a coal
       E     A
burns red I need to find a role
       A                        E
model Like a need a hole in my head
      B
Don't need to change the time honey
A            G    D    E
I'm already half past dead

Chorus:
   E               B
Strike me until I break
      A             E
then turn me into flames
       E
Cause round and around
     G
you can't go down Without
   A                     E
a pound and an ounce of pain
I wake up find again my
shadow haunts me until the end
Cause round and around
you can't go down Without
a pound and an ounce of pain

Oh the darkest black her soul
But her lips were painted ocean green
And once I drank her potion
A witch came back to haunt my dreams
Don't need to change the time honey
I'm already half past dead

Chorus:
Strike me 'til I break, then turn me into flames
'Cause round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain
I wake up, find again my shadow haunts me
'til the end
'Cause round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain

Round and around you can't go down
'til your face don't match your name
And I can't stop the rain
That's falling down with no escape
Years go by, you lose your mind
And your face don't match your name

I curse the world in vain
My stubborn heart will never change
Round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain
Round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain
Round and around, you can't go down
Until your face don't match your name

Round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain
Round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain
I wake up, find again my shadow haunts me
'til the end
'Cause round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain
Round and around, you can't go down
Without a pound and an ounce of pain
'Cause round and around, you can't go down
Until your face don't match your name
