I am just another fool   And I have to   Keep telling myself that      I am just a hypocrite   And I have to   Keep calling you on      'Cause I forgot to bite my tongue   And my assumtion   It is the mother of all mistakes      But I assume the role   Open my mouth   And clumsy words escape      So why ya, wanna be there?   When you could be here?   You are slippin' away...      I awake to your replacement;   A bottle in my mouth   In an unfamiliar place      'Cause you put me out   The butt of a sick joke   Into this ashtray life   As you come and go      'Cause I forgot to service you   And we broke down   And you can't live with my mistakes      But I assume false grace   Open my arms   And grasp for something true      How are you, how have you been?   Girl, I miss you   Wanna see you again      Oh why ya, wanna be there?   When you could be here?   You are slippin' away...      I bring out the worst in you   And you try to let me know   You bring out the worst in me;      Anxiety   Anxiety      I'm trying hard to let you go   But...   You say I'm giving you the creeps      But I assume the role   Open my claws   And grasp for your heart      How are you, how have you been?   Girl, I miss you   Wanna kill you again      Into you   Like a mortal stake   So vindictive...      Girl, I'm slipping away...
