lyrics

I’ve got you waiting around
I’ve got you waiting around
I don’t mean to scare you but I am down
Don’t be afraid of me now
Don’t be afraid of me now
I’ve got these demons I can’t hide cause I am down

All of your friends have figured me out
They say
I’m just too jaded and all spun out
And every day that I’m messin around
I could
Appreciate that you’ve stuck around

I feel I’m sinkin now
I feel I’m sinkin now
It seems that I am without air as I drown
Don’t walk away from me dear
Don’t walk away from me dear
Your cold shoulder is turning; I’m in fear

All of your friends have figured me out
They say
I’m just too jaded and all spun out
And every day that I’m messin around
I could
Appreciate that you’ve stuck around

And you know and I know that you haven’t
And you know and I know that you haven’t
So let me just ask,
Where were you when I tried to leave this place?
Or what about the time when that knife wouldn’t find its place
Or when I felt my life was a lie and I wouldn’t survive
And what about the times when I cried cause my head felt so tight

Why would you say that you were around?
I swear I heard you bat an eyelash as I drowned
So now the truth comes out; I didn’t like you too
Come down from your high horse

You’ve got me waiting around
You’ve got me waiting around
I don’t mean to scare you, but I am down
I am down and out
I won't stick around
if you're scared about
dealin with me
