want to keep you from breaking



want to keep you from shaking

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 said

all the things you've done

i wish i could compromise

but theres only one way to go

and i'm going alone(x2)



your self help bookshelf is full now

your pictures are about to be pulled down

without regard for a broken heart its another year



ringing in my head

all the things you said

all the things you've done

i wish i could compromise

but theres only one way to go



want to be with you tonight(x2)

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 get up



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 some how make it all alright

but i know theres 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(x2)
