so the loop has started

and I sit here broken hearted

sounds like something

written on a bathroom wall



and thats the best line

that I've got

cause your mother has you

so well taught

and I've got to lie about you

as I scrawl on this stall



why do you treat me so well

why do you treat me so god damn well



been good to me so long

the enemy of a good song

and that's the kind of problem

every women should want



I've been through hellish phases

that yielded good catch phrases

but here with you, all that shit is gone



why do you treat me so well

why do you treat me the way

I need to be treated

why do you treat me so well

why do you need me the way

I need to be needed



that day in may

I thought I'd break

you broke me down

I was yours to take

across the room

I catch your glance

no standing guard

cause no one else stands a chance



so the drum beat's ending

and the patient's pending on

maliciousness and anger



why do you treat me so well

why do you treat me the way

I need to be treated

why do you treat me so well

why do you need me the way

I need to be needed
