You've got this new head Filled up with smoke I've got my veins all tangled close To those jukebox bars you frequent They're the safest place to hide A long night spent with your most obvious weaknesses You start shaking at the thought You are everything I want Because you are everything I'm not And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close I just wanna break you down so badly I trip over everything you say I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way My inarticulate store bought Hangover hobby kit it talks It says 'You, oh, you are so cool' Scissor shaped across the bed You are red, violent red You hollow out my hungry eyes You hollow out my hungry eyes And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close (How close is close enough?) And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close (How close is close enough?) I just wanna break you down so badly I trip over everything you say I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way I just wanna break you down so badly I trip over everything you say I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way I'm gonna make damn sure That you can't ever leave No you won't ever get too far from me You won't ever get too far from me I'll make damn sure That you can't ever leave No you won't ever get too far from me You won't ever get too far from me I just wanna break you down so badly I trip over everything you say I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way
