I want you to keep a piece of me
|
in there; right below
|
your majesty
|
I may tend to it with flattery
|
or maybe I'll jump start
|
counting on a battery
|
what's right, unglue
|
what's left, breakthrough
|
brake up, brakedown
|
let up, leave town
|
oh fuck, got stuck
|
you lose, tough luck
|
the odds were in your favor
|
the taste was in your savor
|
how bitter is that swill?
|
and it's dragging me to you
|
don't let me go
|
black hole
|
falling in
|
don't let me go
|
if I'm wrong again
|
don't let me go
|
even if it pulls you in
|
don't let me go
|
|
If you don't you can say
|
you didn't quit
|
and I'm likely to be needing it
|
so sorry but
|
When I let go
|
I thought you'd know
|
how to follow
|
did you swallow?
|
its gone
|
head rush
|
can't see
|
this crush
|
will prove I was unworthy
|
and what I did was usury
|
I'm sorry for that too
|
