Standing in the light
'Cause i want to be decent
Putting up a fight
While picking up the pieces
Up a fight
While picking up the pieces
What i want ain't always what i needed
The way i've acted
You'd think i'd know better
Never wanted to become your dead letter
Never wanted to become a stray
Waking every morning just to wash my dreams away
Tell me
Do you love me
In the worst way still
Don't ask me
Do i need you
'Cause i bleed you
And i know
You know
I do
I'm back to the basics
I gotta face it
Lord, i've the devil to pay
Yeah, i know i've got the devil to pay
Baby, being civil ain't easy
No way to cheat him
It's all beneath me
Lord, i've the devil to pay
Yes, i know i've got the devil to pay
But it's burning up
So why the hell am i freezing?
Tell me
Do you love me
In the worst way still
Don't ask me
Do i need you
'Cause i bleed you
And i know
You know
I do
I lost my way
Well i carried the chain
I get all choked up at the devil to pay
I'm on the ground figuring out the time
I lost the face that i can't replace
I get all choked up at the devil's mistakes
And i'm on the ground still figuring out mine
Tell me do you love me
In the worst way still
Don't ask me do i need you
'Cause i bleed you
And i know
You know
So tell me, do you love me
In the worst way still
Don't ask me do i need you
'Cause i bleed you
And i know
You know
So tell me, do you love me
In the worst way still
Don't ask me will i hold you
'Cause i told you
When i don't
You know
I will
