she said put your hand here honey
have no fear.
i said this how the cops get called
just to be clear.
she said never mind that boy
the time is now
i did her bidding, hit the bottle
and blacked right out
she said whisper to me
yeah that hits the spot.
i said i'm afraid my tongue is tied
i seem to have forgot.
just what exactly i'm supposed to say
in this a-situation
'cuz along with my tongue
my hands and feet are tied
and i'm beginning to have my reservations
i'm gonna die alone
i'm gonna die alone
i'm gonna die alone this way
one more time
around the bend now
she'll get in
you'll get out
she said nevermind that
sweat the little stuff
take this medicine of mine
and give it a good puff
i want you to treat me so bad
i want you to make me your slave
'cuz sometimes I wanna blur the line between
what's real and what's fake.
i'm gonna die alone
i'm gonna die alone
i'm gonna die alone this way
one more time
around the bend now
she'll get in
you'll get out

if you really wanna know the truth then say it honey
but it doesn't seem to be that way
every word that i could say would only hurt you baby
so we'll try again another day
nah na-na nah
for the thousandth time I need you to believe me baby
i prefer if it were not this way
but since you refuse to ever lose a second honey
you put yourself in yet another cage
life ain't ever fair, and judging by all your grey hair
it would appear to you its clear that this is the case
so accept that you can change and move along now honey
either love me or be on your way
would that i could let it show
but it simply isn't so
if you could wait
but anyway...
i've got somewhere to go
but you're in the way
you had me at hello
and now i can't concentrate
so much for the mincing words and all the sugar coating
i can never get a fuckin' break
if you'd only look inside and stop it with the goading
then we'd both be on our merry way
god dammit i can't stand the thought of ever leavin'
but you seem to hate the way i'm made
best believe me when i say i'd love if i could change it
best believe i'd love for some other way
i've got somehwere to go
but you're in the way
you had me at hello
now i can't concentrate
i've got somewhere to go
but you're in the way
you had me at hello
and now its all i can do to tell you
stay out of my way

She's Gonna Cry

you can say it was all a joke
just another long night with too much coke
like a dream
amphetamine choke
memories fade away in a haze of smoke
you can tell me i'm paranoid
but you started with a night
and wound up with a year
you don't trust anyone
i don't trust anything
can you tell me what we're doin' here?
and i wanna know
but i don't wanna hear about it anymore
and i know it's gonna break her heart
and i know she's gonna cry
what's the use?
the abuse that you're used to
never really had a chance to fade away
put it in the back of your mind
let it shine bright
some other day
i'm sick at the thought of it
i get a fit every moment your mouth opens
still you try, then you cry and you lie
and i can't help but wonder
where are we going?
and i wanna know
but i don't wanna hear about it anymore
and i know it's gonna break her heart
i really thought that we could fly
and i know that i can't play the part
and i know she's gonna cry
she's gonna cry
and so am i

heard from a friend our love is over
heard you think i got a demon inside
heard from a friend there ain't no changin' your mind
how many pills did you go and swallow?
how many tabs did you put inside?
heard from a friend you're halfway there
a stones throw away from losin' your mind
do as you will
heard from a friend you're never sober
heard from a friend you're worse than me
can't hardly tell who i should believe
but your woman went and caught the sickness
seems like she got svengali'd
guess we'll never know what really happened
cuz she's the dog and you hold the leash now
do as you will
is the pain so pleasant you can't
tear yourself away?
heard from a friend there's no use trying
heard from a friend you're dead inside
those could've been the whispers of my mind
but you're never gonna win with hiding
you'll always be one step behind
maybe you're okay with never lookin' in
'cuz you're too afraid of what you might find
do as you will.
is the pain so pleasant you can't
tear yourself away?
do as you will.

If you really wanna know what it's about
C'mon babe give me the benefit of the doubt
How you gonna hear me when you yell so loud
And how the hell am I supposed to think when you just shout?
Come and find me lying on the bedroom floor
Askin' me lately why I think life is such a bore
Maybe its because everything circles o'er
The future looks exactly like all the times before
I said
I can't solve the problems that you want me to
In the window you gave me to follow through
You're yelling so loud its turning your skin blue
And I don't posses the patience to listen to you.
Tired of explaining myself all the time
'Cuz you won't stop to listen to what's on my mind
Babe you know you're really gonna be just fine
If you'd let me get a sentence out before you whine
I don't wanna be kind
I don't wanna wait
Takin' all my time
You can wait
But I will leave you behind
Who the hell do you think that you're talking to
With that venom spittin' out the front of you
If this is what it takes to get you in the mood
I'd suggest a xanax, and maybe a drink or two.
I don't wanna be the bearer of bad news
But to hear anything else you'd simply just refuse
God I love ya, but it just makes me confused
When you throw a fit and blame everyone else but you.
I don't wanna be kind
I don't wanna wait
You're takin' all my time
I don't care if you whine
You're makin' me late
And nothin' here will ever be right
You can wait
But I will leave you behind
(solo)
I don't wanna be kind
I don't wanna wait
You're takin' all my time
I don't care if you whine
You're makin' me late
And nothing here is right
I don't wanna be kind
I don't wanna wait
You're takin' all my time
You can wait
But I will leave you behind
