The Damage You Do |
You’ve got it good |
You’re cruel to everyone |
You get their feelings |
And you shake them 'til you’re all alone |
You had the time |
You had the motive now |
Pretend it hurts and they run to you from miles around |
Dressed to kill |
By the hands that never will |
Looks appeal |
To what the feelings don’t reveal |
And I can’t penetrate the lies |
But the damage you do |
Is written across your eyes |
So don’t say you love me |
And I can’t delegate the blame |
But it all comes out sounding just the same |
So don’t try to touch me |
You turn them on |
You switch it off again |
A stream of lovers hanging rotting at your door again |
You pull the strings |
You’ve had them dance for you |
You build them up |
'til they think they’ve got a bone to chew |
You steal to live |
From the hands that never give |
Look within |
Through the doors that don’t cave in |
And I can’t penetrate the lies |
But the damage you do |
Is written across your eyes |
So don’t say you love me |
And I can’t delegate the blame |
But it all comes out sounding just the same |
So don’t try to touch me |
(The words you said just broke in two) |
And I can’t penetrate the lies |
But the damage you do |
Is written across your eyes |
So don’t say you love me |
And I can’t delegate the blame |
But it all comes out sounding just the same |
So don’t try to touch me |
(Is it somehow rewarding, or some kind of warning?) |
