I pretend to sleep while she cries at night

Then slowly dries her eyes

Vacant are the words of mine

That say we are alright


I don't want, don't want to be

Your hate and misery

But I want to be your crutch and I want to be your thing

In this eternal un-ending


Hold on tight but don't hold me down

Stay all night if you wanna

Do your worst, your worst to me

No one will ever hear you


So let me get this straight

I'll take a minute if I may

And try to take it all 

Take it away for you


Black and blue with residue

Your open heart and the untrue

Try to let us go

Another night without


I don't want, don't want to be

Your hate and misery

But I want to be your crutch and I want to be your thing

In this eternal un-ending


Hold on tight but don't hold me down

Stay all night if you wanna

Do your worst, your worst to me

No one will ever hear you
