Wit's End - Single

Cold and alone, that's the way I want to be Some half-arsed statement on democracy Set in my ways with no emotion to see The respectable backside of society A fatal floor in my main issue - A floor that goes by the name of you You seem to want me because you show no hate I can live without you but there's no escape My happiness could be a sentence away If I can just think of the right words to say Deep down inside I think I don't want to know Just want to retreat and go and live in my hole You do something to me that I can't quite comprehend I try to forget you but you just come back again Your voice goes right through me and it's driving me insane But when you ignore me you drive me to my wit's end Haunted by my past, tormented by my dreams Safety is so far away, my life's not what it seems You walk into my world to provide me with some hope But I don't want to know, oh I don't want to know My happiness could be a statement away If I can just think of the right words to say Deep down inside I think I don't want to know Just want to retreat and go and live in my hole You do something to me that I can't quite comprehend I try to forget you but you just come back again Your voice goes right through me and it's driving me insane But when you ignore me you drive me to my wit's end, to my wit's end Just want to be passive and not have to say a word Don't want to force myself - so I am never heard Don't want to be with you, don't want to hold you now Don't want to change the world, I'm happy as I am Cold and alone, cold and alone yeah Cold and alone, that's the way I want to be I don't want to know, I don't want to know I don't want to know yeah, cold and alone

You make me feel like I'm that child again That sense of wonderment once lost in time You make me forget all of the nasty things Those insecurities are left behind I tried to tell you, yes I tried to tell you But the meaning's never in the words I say It's hard to get through when you're being so cool But I get the feeling we'll be here again How can one thing that's so good go so wrong? I thought that we belonged, now I feel drained So maybe sometime we'll find our compromise And then we'll seize the prize that we both crave I tried to tell you, yes I tried to tell you But the meaning's never in the words I say It's hard to get through when you're being so cool But I get the feeling we'll be here again What would you say if I went away? Would you forget about me in a matter of days? And if I go, I want you to know That I'm the only person you can blame I've been confused, broken the rules Wanted respect when nothing was due Just needed you there, were you aware? But I got scared, now nothing is fair So will you show me the way? Banish the pain Teach me to care - it hurts when you're not there I tried to tell you, yes I tried to tell you But the meaning's never in the words I say It's hard to get through when you're being so cool But I get the feeling we'll be here again But I get the feeling we'll be here again Yes I get the feeling we'll be here again And I get that feeling (show me the way) I get that feeling (show me the way) What would you say?

Me to my wit's end Me to my wit's end, to my wit's end Me to my wit's end Driving me insane Can't quite comprehend Just come back again Me to my wit's end, to my wit's end Driving me insane Can't quite comprehend Just come back again Me to my wit's end Me to my wit's end Me to my wit's end Me to my wit's end Me to my wit's end Me to my wit's end Driving me insane Can't quite comprehend Just come back again Me to my wit's end Driving me insane Can't quite comprehend Just come back again Me to my wit's end Driving me insane Can't quite comprehend Just come back again Me to my wit's end Me to my wit's end, to my wit's end
