Throw a dog a bone, I'll take it if I have to   Go real fast like there's somewhere we can get to   What's the use of standing right there on the edge   If there ain't nowhere to fall   What's the use in hanging on tight to the phone   If nobody might call      Desperation   There's danger in frustration   Complicated words slipping off of your tongue   And ain't one of them the truth   I'm still desperate for you      Tell it like a lie, live it like a movie   Give a heart away like it don't mean nothing to me   What's the use in making all the plans that we made   If you weren't gonna go   What's the use of slapping on a smile for a face   If your eyes don't wanna show      Desperation   There's danger in frustration   Complicated words slipping off of your tongue   And ain't one of them the truth   I'm still desperate for you      Well, it's too damn bad you didn't have a chance   To make me your best friend   You were too caught up in giving too much up   And not doing what you should have been      Desperation   There's danger in frustration   Complicated words slipping off of your tongue   And ain't one of them the truth   I'm still desperate for you      Desperation
