Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What would it take for me to feel good
I'm a dead girl walking with no shoes again
It's been a long time coming
Since somebody hurt me
Someone kissed me on my neck
[Verse 2]
I was addicted to your danger
But now I fall asleep, and the angels weep
It's been a long time coming
Since somebody moved me
Someone got a hold on me
[Verse 3]
And it's making me crazy
'Cause I can't stop thinking of you
Oh, nothing can save me
Can't help coming back
'Cause I don't feel nothing
Till I taste my own tears
[Verse 4]
Why would I do this to myself again
Drag myself through the dirt when I can see the end
It's been a long time coming
Since somebody knew me
Someone got inside my head
[Verse 5]
My heart is aching with this loneliness
Tempted to call you, to sleep in my bed
It's been a long time coming
Since somebody touched me
Someone got a hold on me, yeah
[Verse 6]
And it's making me crazy
'Cause I can't stop thinking of you
Oh, nothing can save me
Can't help coming back
'Cause I don't feel nothing
Till I taste my own tears
[Verse 7]
Baby, baby, baby
I'm a moth to a flame
When I'm near you, boy
I can't hold myself back
This love won't be tamed
Baby, baby, baby
[Verse 8]
It's making me crazy
'Cause I can't stop thinking of you
No, and nothing can save me
Can't help coming back
'Cause I don't feel nothing
Till I taste my own tears
[Verse 9]
Said, it's making me crazy
I can't stop thinking of you
Oh, and nothing can save me
Can't help coming back
[Verse 10]
'Cause I don't feel nothing
No, I don't feel nothing
Said, I won't feel nothing
Till I taste my own tears
Oh, oh, oh, oh
