Solitare

I hurt myself again today, I'm feeling a little numb
I could use the pain I always find myself in this little bind
It's been a few weeks since you been around
So here I sit with my hands strapped down
Patiently awaiting those secret games I used to play alone

So here I sit all tied up all alone with all my thoughts
I do not mind if this goes on
I think about what I'll say to you
When you finally decide to go my way
Sitting around all painted like a fool

And I don't know how I got this way
And I don't know how much more I wanna take
I know you'll shoot me down and bury me before I get too high

So here I sit all tied up all alone with all my thoughts
When will I learn to walk away?
From those things I do to make me feel the way I feel
When I'm with you
Tonight it's me, myself and I, yeah
Solitaire

All this pain I seem to put myself through
All the ways I find to submit to you
Cat o' nine tails is getting old (is getting old)
And I don't know how I got this way
And I don't know how much more I wanna take
A million ways to change myself and a million nights to try

So here I sit all tied up all alone with all my thoughts
When will I learn to walk away?
From those things I do to make me feel the way I feel
When I'm with you
Tonight it's me, myself and I

When you did come around?
Do the things you do to me
I hate this game of solitaire
