Analysis of Refrain
Touched by the fire,
Burned by its flame,
Sorry misunderstood,
The rules of the game,
Warned not to trust,
But put it aside,
Tarzan and Jane,
Bonnie and Clyde,
Its okay.....,
Everything is alright,
Back to the loneliness,
Beneath the stary night,
Flesh without feeling,
The numbness of pain,
returning to the shell,
Of refrain................BAD-Mc..
