Cause everyday she's got her back to the wall
And he's the one who plays
And everything you say I already know
Cause she's a healthy slave
She's sitting there you know her
back's to the wall, she said
Well everything's just fine,
cause everything's my fault
My stomach burns and I'm ready to go
I'm really ready to blow

So tell me as we fall asleep tonight
Do you play with me
Just tell me that you'll call and I'll feel fine
I won't complain, I'll just remain
x2

These are the things that I've wanted to say
You know you feel my way
You look at me like you wanna believe
You're a healthy slave
I'm sitting here you know my
back's to the wall, I said it
Well everything's just fine,
cause everything's my fault
My stomach burns and I'm ready to go
I'm really ready to blow

So tell me as we fall asleep tonight
Do you play with me
Just tell me that you'll call and I'll feel fine
I won't complain, I'll just remain
x2

Cold, without anything; isn't
that just what you wanted
Someone to blame for the pain
They said, you're just like your father
You fucked up your life and everything lately
Can't you just be honest
It's so hard to sleep thru the rain

I guess Santa's lost his Claus, yeah

Tell me as we fall asleep tonight
Do you play with me
Just tell me that you'll call and I'll feel fine
I won't complain, I'll just remain
x2

The way you really wanted
Isn't this just what you wanted
It's on the tip of my tongue
I'm cold I can't be honest
You've got someone to blame
I fucked up everything
Cause now we're falling asleep
And I don't know your name

So tell me as we fall asleep tonight
Do you play with me
Just tell me that you'll call and I'll feel fine
I won't complain, I'll just remain
x2

And I'll just remain
She said it; just tell me that you really want it
Oh, she said I want it
By the way I don't want it
I know you're gonna want it
Just drink that gin and tonic, yeah ok

And now we're sitting on the ledge again
And everything that I say, I say to win
It kinda makes me wonder what I'm gonna be
I know you think I'm young, cause I make believe
I'm too proud to compromise
I hope you know that my mind
perceives your lies, baby
Even when I'm between your thighs, baby
I finish up and I just wanna die, maybe
Or we could start a little family tree
And you could sit there smiling
right next to me, and maybe
I could teach you how to count to three
And we could live on a beach
down by the sea, maybe
Now there's something that you should know
It was hard enough just to let you go
It's getting harder as I watch you grow
So I fall asleep and I think of you
