Talk about taking a good thing too far You take a good heart and play it too hard An occupation when it isn't a game There's just compulsion running hot through your veins But you like it like that And you want it like that Because you've told me before But I'm not a fool I've had enough of the pain You've taken none of the blame You've got my headstone made I think I loose again
It's no surprise The poison in your eyes Why don't I ever learn Why don't I ever realise The confrontation's a tool that you use How much affection can you afford to lose You're using cruelty like a personal invention These open arms it's like increasing intention And I've tried to fight back But you bring it right back And now there's nothing to face Because you've been replaced
