My Portion

When the morning comes and I wake up miles away,
 Any other day it's all the same, all the same
 With the rising sun there's a hunger born again,
 Oh oh oh put out the flame, put out the flame
 And the shortest road to the sunset doesn't turn,
 It's what I gotta learn every day, every day
 Just a few more miles to the point of no return,
 Oh oh oh the way is plain, the way is plain
 Oh love you gimme what I need
 You take like a one armed bandit
 Oh be my strength, be my portion
 Oh love you gimme what I need
 To live by your one commandment
 Oh be my strength, be my portion
 Take away my prize so I never have to lose,
 Never gonna lose or play the game, play the game
 Take away desire so I never have to choose,
 Oh oh oh or lay the blame, or lay the blame
 Keep me up all night so I never have to wake,
 Never gonna break away again, away again
 Gimme no advice that I ever have to take,
 Oh oh oh, be not my friend, no you're not my friend
 Oh love you gimme what I need
 You take like a one armed bandit
 Oh be my strength, be my portion
 Oh love you gimme what I need
 To live by your one commandment
 Oh be my strength, be my portion
