Hard times, hard times
When I really need somebody to hold me tight
And tell me I'm strong
Last night, last night
You were really there for me, so thank you
For playing along
But I gotta be honest with you, baby
This is not about love
I gotta be honest with you, baby
I'm not above using ya
To get me through the night
Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts
I don't wanna get caught in the current of my mind
Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts (oooh)
An old man, an old man
Has got his little hands on the
Button feels like nothing anyone can do
People out there are cracking up, cracking up
And I'm just trying to keep it together
Notice that I feel better when I'm holding you
But I gotta be honest with you, baby
This is not about love
I gotta be honest with you, baby
You're here to help rid me of
The demons of the night
Baby, dont leave me alone with my thoughts
I don't wanna get caught in the current of my mind
Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts (oooh)
Would you be my human shield?
Hold you so I don't feel anything
Hold you so that I don't hear the ringing in my head
Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts (ooh)
I don't wanna get caught in the current of my mind (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts (oooh)
I don't wanna get caught in the
Prison of the present time (ooh ooh, ooh)
Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts
Would you be my human shield?
Hold you up so I don't feel anything
Would you be my human shield?
Hold you so that I don't fear anything
Hold you so that I don't hear the ringing in my head
Anymore
