Lyrics

I don't know why I feel this way I don't know if it's right or wrong to laugh at misfortune Darkness can never last too long Every time I think I'm falling And there's nobody around to hold me up And it seems like the world has come to an end I look for miles but not a face is friendly Then suddenly a hole opens up in the ground The bottom of the hole is a raging fire I try to jump over but there's no way The next thing I know, I'm going down () Does it hurt? Oh, it really doesn't matter Does it burn? Oh, I don't feel a thing Does it sting? Oh, yeah, it really doesn't matter Does it hurt? Oh, I don't give a damn When I find myself falling and I hit the bottom It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh When I go down the hole and I hit the bottom The last time that I fell in love The love was milk and honey but the milk turned sour The woman became a monster And everyone I knew had become a stranger And the room went black and my luck was spent The floor opened up, down I went (Repeat) Does it hurt? Oh, it really doesn't matter Does it burn? Oh, I don't feel a thing Does it sting? Oh, yeah, it really doesn't matter Does it hurt? Oh, I don't give a damn When I find myself falling and I hit the bottom It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh When I go down the hole and I hit the bottom It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh Coming right back Coming right back 'Cause you can't keep me down Can't keep me down Oh, in the ground Does it hurt? Oh, it really doesn't matter Does it burn? Oh, I don't feel a thing I don't mind just a little pain Ooh, oh yeah Whoa... Remembering when I was a young man How everything seemed to turn against me I didn't know a soul, it was an alien place The sun was covered by a dark cloud And though I tried, I couldn't find a way to escape The only way to go was straight down (Repeat) Does it hurt? Oh, it really doesn't matter Does it burn? Oh, I don't feel a thing Does it sting? Oh, yeah, it really doesn't matter Does it hurt? Oh, I don't give a damn When I find myself falling and I hit the bottom It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh When I go down the hole and I hit the bottom It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh It only makes me laugh I don't know why I feel this way I don't know if it's right or wrong to laugh at misfortune Darkness can never last too long... When you laugh in its face When you laugh in its face I don't know why I feel this way I don't know if it's right or wrong to laugh at misfortune Darkness can never last too long... When you laugh in its face
