lyrics

Well I have to be honest
Sometimes my feelings aren't true
Sometimes I don't feel anything at all
And in those times I use

I could sure use the company
And even more so to booze
You could feel free to use me
Just this once
If you choose

Oh I'm sorry is this not what you want?
You can tell me if it's not what you want
But know if it's not what you want
Then you don't want me

You want a nice car
You want a nice family
You want that star
On your sleeve

You want a nice home
You'll be too scared to leave
You're already so scared
You can't fall asleep

I will not watch you fall
No I won't be involved

I know that it's not what you want
Any fool knows that it's not what you want
Somehow it is all I want
But you don't want me

So tell me now can you taste it
Or are you too focused on the pain?
Night after night getting wasted
Now you're just pissed off and drained

And yeah this place is a circus
And all of you look the same
I will do this for one more night
Then I'm quitting this game

Yeah lets do this for one more night

Is this not what you want?
C'mon tell me is this not what you want?
Well if it's not what you want
Then you don't want me.
