lyrics

I don’t know
what I’m doing with your life.
My gaze is low,
right beneath your sugarplum eyes.
I’m on the take,
but I try to say what I mean.
I’m a mistake,
but at least you’ll get away clean
from the scene.

Maybe I’m wrong.
Maybe I’m right.
Maybe it’s just this moonlit night.
Has me running ‘round in circles with your head.
Chasing my dreams
or chasing my tail.
Will make no difference if I fail,
and I drive another nail into your heart.

Whisper true,
but don’t tell me how you feel.
What can I do
to resist the urge to steal?
Say you can take it.
Yeah, you won’t break when I let you down.
I know you’re troubled.
I got my own troubles,
and I won’t pick you up from the ground.

Maybe I’m wrong.
Maybe I’m right.
Maybe it’s just this moonlit night.
Has me running ‘round in circles with your head.
Chasing my dreams
or chasing my tail.
Will make no difference if I fail,
and I drive another nail into your heart.

Maybe I’m wrong.
Maybe I’m right.
Maybe it’s just this moonlit night.
Has me running ‘round in circles with your head.
Chasing my dreams
or chasing my tail.
Will make no difference if I fail,
and I drive another nail into your heart.
