I love you more than any man But something’s getting in the way I do you harm because I can For the second time today
Victims we are not of happenstance But you’re a victim all the same Stuck inside a circumstance With your confusion and your blame
And when I get drunk You take me home And keep me safe From harm When I get drunk You take me home
I ask you for another second chance But then I drink it all away And I get bellicose when you react For love, frustration and dismay
I was so delicate when we began So tender when I spoke your name But now I’m nothing but a partisan To my compulsion and my shame
And when I get drunk You take me home And keep me safe From harm When I get drunk You take me home
You know I’m grateful I appreciate But in fact it’s baleful How I suck you dry How I suck you dry How I suck you dry How I suck you… How I suck you dry How I suck you dry How I suck you dry
I love you more than any man But I seem to lay it all to waste I do you harm because I can With a joke and questionable taste
I’ve such duplicity at my command So I keep on lying to your face Then I run away to wonderland And disappear without a trace
When I get drunk You take me home And keep me safe From harm When I get drunk You take me home
You know I’m grateful I appreciate But in fact it’s baleful How I suck you dry How I suck you dry How I suck you dry How I suck you… How I suck you dry How I suck you dry How I suck you dry
