Want to keep you from breaking
Want to keep you from faking
Want to keep you from keeping you down
♪
Want to keep you from sinking
Want to keep you from drinking, sometimes
Want to keep you from keeping you down
Ringing in my head
All the things you've said
All the things you've done
I wish I could compromise, but
There's only one way to go
And I'm going alone

I'm going alone

Your self-help bookshelf is full now
Your pictures are about to be pulled down
Without regard for a broken heart
It's another year
Ringing in my head
All the things you've said
All the things you've done
I wish I could compromise, but
There's only one way to go
Want to be with you tonight
Want to be with you tonight
No I know it isn't right
Want to be with you tonight
Cause I love the way that you shock, shock, shock me
Follow me to my house and then you rock, rock, rock me
Want to see your eyes wide not sewed shut
The queen be cool don't stop keep up
Living in the city can be dying
If you don't get a grip take a sip from my Molotov mug
Want to keep you from keeping you down
Pick yourself up off the ground
Want to keep you from keeping you down
Come on girl
Ringing in my head
All the things you've said
All the things you've done
I wish I could compromise
I wish I could close my eyes
And somehow make it all alright
But I know there's only one way to go
Miss the way that you shock shock shock me
Follow me to my house and then you rock rock rock me
Want to see your eyes wide not sewed shut
The queen be cool don't stop keep up
Living in the city can be dying
If you don't get a grip take a sip from my Molotov mug
Want to keep you from keeping you down
Pick yourself up off the ground
