End The Dream - Lyrics - Can't Hang

"Can't Hang Do You Want To" is Xscape's fourth single from their second studio album Off the Hook that featured rapper MC Lyte. The song reached number #50 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number #9 on Billboard's Hot R&B Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks. It was a double A side to Do You Want To.

You wrap an apologetic arm around me A blanket an attempt To share the warmth, but I absorb you energy You paint yourself into a corner A bucket and a brush An empty room and a fresh green coat of envy Sit and dine on our words candles burnin high A glass of pride and regret for dessert The guilt still lingers on like heartburn in the middle of your chest A reminder of the lessons we have learned Chorus: End the Dream It's about time Make of it what you will A broken heart and time to kill Lookin' though the lens of hindsight We see who's at fault A joint effort, the building of a bomb Time ran down and detonation became a fitting end Our friends came to be civilian casualties I convinced myself that I've done nothing wrong Maybe that's just it Lack of action led to the writing of this song Chorus: End the Dream It's about time Make of it what you will A broken heart and time to kill (Instrum. Break)
