Child keeps its toys hidden away
|
Till it wants to break them
|
Take your share and go away
|
Make sure you get the last word
|
Sit back out of harm's reach
|
Watch the little cup of poison
|
Chasing its own tail around and around
|
Until it's exhausted at its wits end

I try my best I wait for you to nail me
|
Now I try and never do
|
Anything they tell me
|
'Cause waiting about an inch
|
Under human nature
|
Tragedies and comedies
|
And a touching sense of failure
|

|
When you held me in your arms
|
At the limits of your patience
|
I knew I'd always lose
|
Every scene of violence
|
When you held me in your arms
|
Why didn't you want me
|
When you held me in your arms
|
Why didn't you touch me
|
|
Well I used to know how
|
To slip through your blind spot
|
And now I just watch myself
|
Set the alarms off
|
I'm happier now in my shame
|
And don't look to you for anything
