I've got an inclination
Towards the stranger things in life, my friends
It is my occupation
To see the darkness in the light, my friends

So I jump into the fire
That is the campground of my soul, once again
To watch the ashes of desire
Float away like blackened doves, in the wind

If love don't tear me apart
If I'm not feelin' quite enough pain
If love don't tear me apart
I'll do it myself
Do it myself

Damn this imagination
It's never done me any good, so far
My mind is always racin'
Through the gutters of the neighborhood, in the stars

If love don't tear me apart
If I'm not feelin' quite enough pain
If love don't tear me apart
I'll do it myself

Gonna run, gonna ride
'Til I'm never satisfied
'Cause I know I'm my own worst enemy
And the love that I lose
Tryin' to overpay the dues
Is the one that could save me
From the agony

(aah, aah)

ooh, yeah

I've got an inclination
To spend the best years of my life
In Napalm Springs

If love don't tear me apart
If I'm not feelin' quite enough pain
If love don't tear me apart
I'll do it myself
If love don't tear me apart
If I'm not feelin' quite enough pain
If love don't tear me apart
