How Does It Feel?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Written by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades
Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades

Lying in an open grave
I didn't do it
Sign says you'd better get set
I wonder who they are talking to
Down to the hole in your pocket
Way down In the valley
Go nothing but time to spend
I guess you gonna waste that, too
Easy money
Is that what you need?
Pretty little people surround you as you bleed
Bonnie with a whip and chains
Bonnie won a cracker
So pretty but she got no brains
Don't you want her number, too

How does It feel to be used?
Easy to win when there is nothing to lose
How can you tell when it's over and
time to go home?

Throwing money down a deep black hole
Like It doesn't matter
You tell me it belongs to you
Who you think you're talking to?
Slow dancing in a whiskey haze
Ah, year, you're the victim
keep it up
keep it up all night
Till you wake up and
You're someone new
Hey, hey,
So close the Window
Black out the day
I see your peace of mind
It's going the other way

How does It feel to be used?
Easy to win when there is nothing to lose
How can you tell when it's over
and time to go home?
People know it's closing time
hotel, motel time

How do you know what to feel
Sucked into a world where so little is real
Someday you'll awake to discover
It's time to go home
May be you're somebody, ooh
Somebody you'll wake up to find
You're never alone
