Lost you
To the pain inside your head
Fought so hard
The fear of going mad
Wherever you go
Everything is wrong
You feel weak
While you think of me
As strong
I see panic
Deep within your eyes
Your naivety
Ignoring all those lies
Things I've said
And deeds I've done
I could just as well have
Handed you the gun
I wanna split your head open
With a bolt of lightning
Erase your memory
Take away what's frightening
I wanna
I wanna
I wanna split your head open
With a bolt of lightning
Reach out
Through the darkness and the void
Take my hand
I must
Demand of you
Turn around
Look at what you've got
Love was hurt
But this time I am true
Don't let
Fallen heroes lead you so astray
Join the ring
The fight is not yet lost
Please take
All the bruises and the blows
Let me help
I'll cover all your costs
I wanna split your head open
With a bolt of lightning
Erase your memory
Take away what's frightening
I wanna
I wanna
I wanna split your head open
With a bolt of lightning
Lightning
Follows thunder
Rips the sky
Tears it asunder
Lighting
Leaves no trace
Just open space
Lightning
Follows thunder
I wanna split your head open
With a bolt of lightning
Erase your memory
Take away what's frightening
I wanna
I wanna
I wanna split your head open
With a bolt of lightning

Jean Christopher: The song itself is quite uplifting. A hint of darkness in the happiness.
Francis O'Neal: That's so typical of us.
Jean Christopher: Yeah, that's true. (Laughs.)
