Its haunting This hole that you have over me I grow so weak I see you And everything around you fades And I cant see You can never know what it is you do to me I can't take what you do to me I can't take it I can't take what you do to me I can't take it No matter what I say or what I do I know how this will end So I turn it away now before we begin And now matter what you say or what you do I know how this will end So I'm turning away now I'm dangerous for you I'm dangerous for you You touch me And I can barely make a move And I can't breathe You never know what it is you do to me I can't take what you do to me I can't take it I can't take what you do to me I can't take it No matter what I say or what I do I know how this will end So I'm turning away now before we begin And no matter what you say or what you do I know how this will end So I'm turning away now I'm dangerous The only promise I could make Is that my promise is a lie The only promise I could make you Is that my promise is a lie No matter what I say or what I do I know how this will end So I'm turning away now before we begin And no matter what you say or what you do I know how this will end So I'm turning away now I'm dangerous for you I'm dangerous for you I'm dangerous for you I'm dangerous for you I'm dangerous for you I'm dangerous for you I'm dangerous, I'm dangerous for you My promise is I will hurt you My promise is I will hurt you My promise is I will hurt you My promise is I will hurt you
