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?)
