Desperation
I was so happy to meet you
But now I'm sick in the depths of my soul
I can't even begin to
Account for all of the things that you stole
Oh you drive me to desperation
'til I'm undone
Every one of my higher functions
Completely gone
Oh you drive me to desperation
And it's no fun
Nothing more than an animal impulse
To fight or run
You went straight to work on me
And for a while, made me so fine
Just long enough so you could see
Every weakness to undermine
Oh you drive me to desperation
And now you've won
You're like a shameful addiction
That never should have begun
Oh you drive me to desperation
And now I'm spun
In a web of self doubt and hatred
Where I'm no-one
Excuse me, is this seat taken
(And then)
You look incredible in this light
(And then)
I think I'd like to see you again
(And then)
I need somewhere to stay tonight
(And then)
Your friends are mean, and they don't like me
(And then)
You don't need to see them anymore
(And then)
You're so needy, I can't stand your touch
(And then)
The sight of you sickens me to the core
Oh you drive me to desperation
Your work is done
Now I hide, out of sight of the world
And everyone
Oh you drive me to desperation
I'm overrun
Cowering in the shade
And I can't bear to face the sun
My joy's gone and despair is the only
Feeling left after all of your strife
My one failure was feeling lonely
The day you breezed on into my life
But now I'm sick in the depths of my soul
I can't even begin to
Account for all of the things that you stole
Oh you drive me to desperation
'til I'm undone
Every one of my higher functions
Completely gone
Oh you drive me to desperation
And it's no fun
Nothing more than an animal impulse
To fight or run
You went straight to work on me
And for a while, made me so fine
Just long enough so you could see
Every weakness to undermine
Oh you drive me to desperation
And now you've won
You're like a shameful addiction
That never should have begun
Oh you drive me to desperation
And now I'm spun
In a web of self doubt and hatred
Where I'm no-one
Excuse me, is this seat taken
(And then)
You look incredible in this light
(And then)
I think I'd like to see you again
(And then)
I need somewhere to stay tonight
(And then)
Your friends are mean, and they don't like me
(And then)
You don't need to see them anymore
(And then)
You're so needy, I can't stand your touch
(And then)
The sight of you sickens me to the core
Oh you drive me to desperation
Your work is done
Now I hide, out of sight of the world
And everyone
Oh you drive me to desperation
I'm overrun
Cowering in the shade
And I can't bear to face the sun
My joy's gone and despair is the only
Feeling left after all of your strife
My one failure was feeling lonely
The day you breezed on into my life
