You get no brakes on the pa**enger side
Being with you is like a New York taxi ride
That wasn't love we made
It was more like violence
You always leave me in the middle
Of excited and afraid
Why do I want you when I know it's wrong
Why is my weakness for you so strong
Talking myself out of loving you
I'm trying so hard to convince my heart
You got a hold on me too tight
I can't explain the feeling I get
When I'm walking the line
Between pleasure and pain
"I'm hiding my head in the sand"
Hear the voices in my head
I can't help it, my hands are tied
Do I run for my life, or do I stay in your bed
Baby, I know that you're just no good
I'd walk away from you if I could
Talking myself out of loving you
I'm trying so hard to convince my heart
You got a hold on me too tight
But part of me likes the fright
I can't explain the feeling I get
When I'm walking the line
Between pleasure and pain
I'm lying awake, lying to myself
Trying to imagine me with someone else
'Cause you never hold me tenderly
I really don't know what you want from me
It's agony and ecstasy
Why do I want you when I know it's wrong
Why is my weakness for you so strong, so strong
Talking myself out of loving you
I'm trying so hard to convince my heart
You got a hold on me too tight
But part of me likes the fright
You know it just ain't right
I can't explain the feeling I get
When I'm walking the line
Between pleasure and pain
Pleasure and pain, yeah, yeah
