How can someone who wants to be loved
|
hate it when they're loved at all?
|
Does guilt really feel that bad?
|
Every time I take a breath, honey
|
I feel the weight fall back on me
|
Somebody tell me it's not so bad
|
|
Collected thoughts drown in sleep
|
I had forgotten what you mean to me
|
I forgot a lot of things
|
|
What happens to the old girl, what happens to the boy?
|
I see their eyelids moving
|
What happens to the old boy, will he be destroyed?
|
Is this what I'm losing?
|
But I feel, feel
|
But I feel something, oh it's better than nothing
|
|
I've been sleeping in his bed
|
I'm digging in my head
|
He pulls the cash from under the table
|
Take that breath and hold it in
|
Oh it's sidling in, he says
|
It's not so bad
|
|
Collected thoughts drown in sleep
|
I had forgotten what you mean to me
|
I forgot a lot of things
|
|
What happens to the old girl, what happens to the boy?
|
I see their eyelids moving
|
What happens to the old boy, will he be destroyed?
|
Is this what I'm losing?
|
But I feel, feel
