i spent my last nights
strung up and pulled tight,
holding out, sleeping proud.
an answer comes without a please.
do what you want.
i wonder why i'm so caught off gaurd
when we kiss.
i'd rather live my life in regret
than do this.
what happened to the love we both knew,
we both chased?
hanging on a cigarette
you need me
you'll burn me
you'll burn me
hushed with a finger,
don't say you'll never when you might.
oh, just another time.
this poison comes instruction free.
do what you want,
but i'm drinking.
i wonder i'm so caught off gaurd
when we kiss.
i'd rather live my life in regret
than do this.
what happened to the love we both knew,
we both chased?
hanging on a cigarette
you need me
you'll burn me
you'll burn me
bye, bye
better next time
stay on my side tonight.
----------------------------
i'm not exactly sure what i should say
everything i do is a mistake
your attention is attention
(it doesn't matter if it's fake or real)
i'll take it if i get it
i've made up my mind
i'll do it over anytime
you're over it, over me.
present just physically
the last words from a dying scene
you're over me
i really need to hear how great i am
cause i can't even get up out of bed
now say it like you mean it
(it doesn't matter how it really feels)
sing it back softly
you've got to be strong
and i've been empty oh so long.
you're over it, over me.
present just physically
the last words from a dying scene
you're over me.
old days all went bad
rotten, wilted, black.
before you'd have a chance to call
i'll be on the next train home
(you've got your mind made up)
added to the endless list
of all the things we'll never, never know
------------------------
everyday i get a little closer dear
will you love me darling,
when i get there?
i'll need sunshine,
i'll need rest,
pour us whiskey, water, kiss.
remember me?
she says my name
write my name somewhere safe.
touch and taste,
fades with space.
i'll never be,
who you dream.
everyday i try a little harder dear
but those things you do i dont want to hear.
you'll have yours
i'll have mine
no one guilty
no one right
remember me?
she says my name
write my name somewhere safe.
touch and taste,
fades with space.
i'll never be,
who you dream.
everyday i get a little closer dear
gonna drive fast,
all night til i get there.
not much time we can waste
nothing pretty enough to say.
