If you were a baby I would take you and run   I could hide you in the folds of my heart   There's a truth in the madness that I can't get beyond   And a fever that won't leave me alone      I don't want my heart   Don't want my head   Don't want my friends   Don't want my bed      I can't live with myself   I can't live with myself   Can't take no help, I try to want to   But I can't get beyond you      I will stare from the window   At the shapes in the rain   As the space between us   Drives me insane      I can't live with myself   I can't live with myself   Can't take no help   Don't want no one else      If I was a child   I would refuse to leave   I would sit down on the street   Kick my legs and scream      I'm not much of a man   But I know how I am   I know this won't fade away   I will pretend and be strong   But I wonder where I belong      And the feeling comes in waves   A hole in my body, aching   Like a heart dying a soul crying   Exhausted and insecure      Took all you have and I still want more   So I reach out to hold you   But all I do is hurt you   Hurt you      I can't live with myself   I can't live with myself   Can't take no help, I try to want to   But I can't get beyond you      If I was a child I would take you and run   And I say I don't know but I know   And I say I'll go   You just spent the whole day   Driving away
