I always wanted you
You're such a bitter pill to swallow
You're the lump inside my throat
Don't watch me choke
Don't watch me choke
Don't watch me choke
You never knew my name
'til you saw me up on stage
The lavender lights
The way that they cried
It had you reaching up to me
The one from my dreams
Like an angel or queen
With a scarred up heart
But a nose like a fiend
Had her crawling to me
On her hands and her knees
From her castle of gold
Through the dirt on the streets
I could never forget that look behind your eyes
When you got in my car for the very first time
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
You're such a bitter pill to swallow
You're the lump inside my throat
Don't watch me choke
Don't watch me choke
Don't watch me choke
Who knew what we'd become
Searching for soul in bottles of rum
We were playing with fire
Playing with guns
Writing our names in tainted blood
And i wish you had been
In love with me then
The things that we felt
Were more than pretend
All the bridges we built were crumbling
Crumbling, falling from under me
Falling from under me
But i'm begging you
Cling to me, cling to me
'cause I know that you need me so desperately
And i'm falling
I'm falling
I'm falling down
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
You're such a bitter pill to swallow
You're the lump inside my throat
Don't watch me choke
Don't watch me choke
Don't watch me choke
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
I always wanted you
