LYRICS
Well I feel it
just a little
When I slip back off of the needle
It's just the world I'm slipping away from
Don't you all love it when I come undone
There you go
selling peace
Like it was yours to dispense for free
Oh maybe Baby there's a reason why I would do this
But that reason has eluded me
I'm pretty sure you're not telling the truth
And you're convinced your lies will set me free
Well I'm Half the
Man
Of what I'm supposed to be
And I've been down too long
For someone to rescue me
You know I'm Half the Man
Of what I'm supposed to be
And it's a long way back
Way too long for me
This is where I
tell you
How easy I can stop when I want
Oh maybe Baby there's a reason why I would do this
But that reason has eluded me
You're asking me when I think this will end
But I know I'll go around this block again
Cause I'm Half the
Man
What I'm supposed to be
And I've been down too long
For someone to rescue me
You know I'm Half the Man
What I'm supposed to be
And it's a long way back
Way too long for me
You know I'm Half the Man
I can fake it from
here
People tend to believe what they hear
I tell you lies
So you can pretend
I'm using the wrong words
Yeah, they're sounding alright
I'm looking you over
You're saying goodnight
I said it's over
You said "when'd it begin?"
One more wasted
night
I slip away
These old habits are so hard to break
One more wasted girl
I have to take
Lying on her back
Glaze on her face
I can feel, I can
feel you breathing
We go round and round for a season
One more hour won't end this solitude
I can feel, I can feel you breathing
We go round and round for a season
Tell me now who's using who
I'm a Sex Addict
I'm a Sex Addict
I trip over life's
hazy lines
I search the night for your shining eyes
Come along with me
And go for a ride
I can't wait until I get you inside
I can feel, I can
feel you breathing
We go round and round for a season
One more hour won't end this solitude
I can feel, I can feel you breathing
We go round and round for a season
Tell me now who's using who
And when I come
around
I know when you see me
You see an idea of what you could be
I'm a Sex
I'm a Sex Addict
I'm a Sex
I'm a Sex Addict
I can feel, I can
feel you breathing
We go round and round for a season
One more hour won't end this solitude
I can feel, I can feel you breathing
We go round and round for a season
Tell me now who's using who
Give me what you
got
I can make you holler
Look into my eyes
You'll see no tomorrow
Tell me now who's using who
I remember a
friend's last words
He said I'll see you again
His eyes a stone-cold azure
Glazed like a sky-blue cerulean
You got to fake it
like you mean it
Just let it drip, drip inside
One more hit and then I'll feel it
One more slip and I will
Slide on down
Slide on down again
Slide on down but it never ends
I'm just a child
on Ritalin
But you can't deal with how I'm feeling
How am I ever supposed to grow?
I've lived this
life once before
This is my third or fourth time around
I'm not keeping score
I just promise to let you down
You got to fake it
like you mean it
Just let it drip, drip inside
One more hit and then I'll feel it
One more slip and I will
I'm just a child
on Ritalin
But you can't deal with how I'm feeling
How am I ever supposed to grow?
You got to fake it
like you mean it
Just let it drip, drip inside
One more hit and then I'll feel it
One more slip and I will
Remember when we
were young
And used to celebrate?
All that's faded now.
I'm a little bit older.
And just a little more tired.
I don't do it for the thrill.
I do it for The High
Now that we're all
grown
We try to escape our lives
Using needle and spoon
I'm a little bit older.
And just a little more tired.
I don't do it for the thrill.
I do it for The High
You said we'd be
fine
If we could just stay this way
We want to escape
We want to avoid the big fade
You said we'd be fine
You'd be mine for all time
How did it feel when I
I said goodbye
I do it for The High
Yeah, oh yeah
There's a man with a badge on his shirt
And he thinks that he's God
Yeah, oh yeah
Well if you strip him of that badge
Man, what have you got?
Wait a minute
Don't treat me like that
I never really did anything bad
Just where a man has been
Won't tell you now where he's at.
Hold on a second and give me some hope.
The only way out's to climb up that rope.
Just where a man had been
Won't tell you now when he's home
I said yeah
Yeah, oh yeah
There's a boy with a gun in his hand
And he thinks he's a man
Yeah, oh yeah
Well if you take away that gun
Boy, you've got no plans
Wait a minute
Don't treat me like that
I never really did anything bad
Just where a man has been
Won't tell you now where he's at.
Hold on a second and give me some hope.
The only way out's to climb up that rope.
Just where a man had been
Won't tell you now when he's home
I said yeah
