v1: i got this problem i cannot reveal, baby
the news is hurting so bad
zeroing in on this burning desire but
disease riddles my head
sunset falls on your pale skin
while i found the reasons why i have to play to win
no more excuses, no more means to an end
i'm running out of these nooses
pc: your body flutters, as i walk over
reach down slowly, and take my hand
let's take a walk downtown, no, let's take the steps upstairs
show me your wild card, i'll play the fool again
c: all this time you've been following me around
but what did you really need
give me something to bleed for, baby
i wanna swing, feel the sting of what i won't have
why you wanna be someone in bed you'll fault me again
rolling on the floor you give me all that i never had
v2: dust is scattered all across the room, like a shelf ripped off its place
all my excuses come crashing down, now pull me towards your face
pc
c
b:nobody here knows my name
so why can't we talk somewhere, like my bed frame
you're towing that county line
you're nickle and diming me all the way down
you're sipping gin and lime
you're pulling me down for the last time
sing it all this time you've been following me around
but what did that really mean
give me something to bleed for baby
i wanna swing, feel the sting of what i don't have
