"Partner In Crime" lyrics

When you're gone I feel alone again
The voices cannot hold my hand
They keep me company at very best
Distract me from my loneliness

Maybe I'm just an anomaly
Even my demons have their families
Truly something must be wrong with me
To need you as much as I do

I was never meant to win
I was never meant to win
I was never meant to win

(Shut up!)

Here's the reigns
Take ahold of me
Please, don't let me go

You do the talking
Sew up my mouth if I can't keep it closed
There's a dog barking right around the block
And a big ol' whistle blow

Run for it
I'll keep 'em occupied for you
Cause I love you, I love you so

Left me hangin' at the station
But you'll be back for me soon

I'm 'bout to die
Yet the only thing I find I'm worried about is you

Something tells me you aren't coming
Guess that I'm truly doomed

I'm 'bout to die
Yet the only thing I find I'm worried about is you
I'm 'bout to die
Yet the thing on my mind seems to nearly be nothing but you

I overhear your brain when it's close to mine
Oh, I know that we're not the same
My heart's on the line

I'm just a pawn in your game
Not your partner in crime

And you're slowly killing me
Taking your time
You're slowly killing me
Taking your time

You're slowly killing me
Taking your... (I was never meant to win)
You're slowly killing me
Taking your... (I was never meant to win)

You're slowly killing me
And yet I don't mind (You were never meant to win)
You're slowly killing me
But please, take your time
