lyrics

Sometimes they just won't leave me alone
I just wanna go away
for a little while
and hide out somewhere
I don't know, in a mountainside
oh, and then
oh, then I can
decide
what to do with you, darling
what to do with you, darling

they won't leave me alone
they keep asking me
where's she at
they keep saying
when's she gonna come around
and I keep saying
I don't know, darling
I don't know

thought maybe you'd come around
and stay awhile
but no, you just turned around
and you left so fast
and darling, didn't even get
to remember you

you always leave that way
you always leave that way

I always wondered
how far you'd take it, darling
before you'd say, stop, stop
I can't take anymore
you were always good at taking all that stuff
you were always good at taking all that
I'm so proud of your abilities, darling

you know you're never enough for yourself
and never will be, probably
I don't know what you're trying to reach
I don't know how you feed
and I don't care
'cause it's draining me, darling
it's draining me

you always took advantage of these
situations, didn't you
the power they gave you
the power they gave you

electronics sabotage
overload
entertain me with your
dance hall
dance hall
your dance hall games

I know you were a slut, yes
I didn't care very much
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't, no
I still don't

you're gonna be left all alone, darling
hope you can take it
hope you can take it, yes

what is this world coming to
that you should behave in such a way
what is the world coming to
that you should behave in such a way
what is the world coming to
that you should behave in such a way, such a way

I shouldn't have ever trusted you
for my information
you talk too much, anyway
I never would have touched you
if I would have known
the way you have become
you have infected me
with your lies
and your eyes
your lies and your eyes
your lies and your eyes
your lies and your eyes
your lies and your eyes
your lies and your eyes
your lies and
your eyes
