I held my breath just a little too long
Trying to change the truth
I couldn't tell if I was right or wrong
Putting my trust in you
But when my heart was hanging by a thread
Your words cut me down
I should have known better than to lay my head
On such shaky ground
I need you
Like a bullet to the brain
Just to see if I'm alive
I need you
Like an arrow to the heart
Just to feel something inside
I need you (I need you, I need you)
I need you
Like a bullet to the brain
Just to get you off my mind
Too strung out on your own sick pride
It's so plain to see
Making friends with the war inside
Left no room for me
Half alive and losing sleep
Things just aren't the same
You've always been like a drug to me
But now you're poison in my veins
I need you
Like a bullet to the brain
Just to see if I'm alive
I need you
Like an arrow to the heart
Just to feel something inside
I need you (I need you, I need you)
I need you
Like a bullet to the brain
Just to get you off my mind
