When you're defenceless And they're killing me, but killing me slowly
There was a time when we were fine
And I could tolerate you
I do believe that you should leave 'cos I've grown to hate you
Should I be weak and turn my cheek
'cos I'm scared to fall
But I just don't know you And you don't know me at all
I've been told that love's a celebration
But I've lost faith through frustration And it's killing me, but killing me slowly
You paint my picture black
The joke's on me
And I don't wanna laugh
Remember the good times
Won't you bring them back someday, somehow
I don't mind feeling blue
If I could smile just like you do And it's killing me, killing me slowly
I can't go on alone
Pretending nothing's wrong
Maybe I just want to belong Somewhere, somehow, somehow
