You've got it good |
|
You're cruel to everyone |
|
You get their feelings |
|
And you shake them 'til you're all alone |
|
You had the time |
|
You had the motive now |
|
Pretend it hurts and they run to you from miles around |
|
Dressed to kill |
|
By the hands that never will |
|
Looks appeal |
|
To what the feelings don't reveal. |
|
And I can't penetrate the lies |
|
But the damage you do |
|
Is written across your eyes |
|
So don't say you love me |
|
And I can't delegate the blame |
|
But it all comes out sounding just the same. |
|
So don't try to touch me. |
|
You turn them on |
|
You switch it off again |
|
A stream of lovers hanging rotting at your door again. |
|
You pull the strings |
|
You've had them dance for you. |
|
You build them up |
|
'til they think they've got a bone to chew. |
|
You steal to live |
|
From the hands that never give |
|
Look within |
|
Through the doors that don't cave in. |
|
And I can't penetrate the lies |
|
But the damage you do |
|
Is written across your eyes |
|
So don't say you love me |
|
And I can't delegate the blame |
|
But it all comes out sounding just the same. |
|
So don't try to touch me. |
|
(The words you said just broke in two) |
|
And I can't penetrate the lies |
|
But the damage you do |
|
Is written across your eyes |
|
So don't say you love me |
|
And I can't delegate the blame |
|
But it all comes out sounding just the same. |
|
So don't try to touch me. |
|
(Is it somehow rewarding, or some kind of warning?) |
