You see me now as large as life,
|
but underneath you knew all too well
|
The hollow shell, no spark of life
|
Where once upon a time there beat a heart
|
For you and you knew it from the start,
|
and you went and blew it all away
|
|
And you knew how, oh you knew best
|
The strings to pull and buttons to press
|
To wind me up and make me shake,
|
you controlling every move I made
|
|
I couldn't see through it, all the pain,
|
and you put me through it
|
Over and over again,
|
just tell me over and over and over
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
How could you say there was no other,
|
why is it nothing's what it seems
|
You told me I'm your greatest lover,
|
do you even know what that word means
|
Your lovin' is coolin', baby who ya think you're foolin'
|
'Cos when I woke up I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
|
When I woke up I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
|
|
Stop it! Stop it! Don't you say a word
|
I feel my hands around her neck and everything went blurred
|
Broken, broken, she slipped from out my hands
|
|
She lay so still and lifeless, I cried baby, baby, baby
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
|
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
|
|
It was my dumb luck, I just came unstuck
|
My whole world shook, I'd had about enough
|
When I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
|
|
(Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
|
[Repeats out]
