Fool for the Pain

Hat on, eyes down
And a little bit of blood
On her blue nightgown
Headstrong, but her hands are cold
She'll only do the opposite
Of what she is told
Have you lost your way now, have you
And you push me away
When I try to help you
Ooh
Let me rescue
Let me, let me rescue you
Let me rescue
Let me, let me rescue
I can tell how
You ain't quite yourself now
Let me rescue
Let me, let me rescue

Why is it I only feel alive
When I'm close to the edge
And further from light
Down on my knees
Are we sinners or saints
Desperate for love
And a fool for the pain
Why is it I always lose control
If my body's a temple
I gave up my soul
Down on my knees
Are we sinners or saints
Desperate for love
And a fool, fool for the pain

Red lights with the shades drawn
In a one bedroom apartment
Where she doesn't belong
Three years lost memory
Now she's crying on the floor
And she's no better than me
Have you lost your way now, have you
And you go down in flames
When you shouldn't have to
Ooh
Let me rescue
Let me, let me rescue you
Let me rescue
Let me, let me rescue
I can tell how
You ain't quite yourself now
Let me rescue
Let me, let me rescue

Why is it I only feel alive
When I'm close to the edge
And further from light
Down on my knees
Are we sinners or saints
Desperate for love
And a fool for the pain
Why is it I always lose control
If my body's a temple
I gave up my soul
Down on my knees
Are we sinners or saints?
Desperate for love
And a fool, fool for the pain

And now you've done it again
But still I let you back in
Like nothing ever happened
But we both know it happened
She invited you in
Her lipstick stained on your skin
Like you were for the taking
And now my hands are shaking

Why is it I only feel alive
When I'm close to the edge
And further from light?
Down on my knees
Are we sinners or saints?
Desperate for love
And a fool for the pain
Why is it I always lose control
If my body's a temple
I gave up my soul
Down on my knees
Are we sinners or saints?
Desperate for love
And a fool, fool for the pain
