I saw you take the first lingering steps away from me
Towards something, maybe towards someone

I hear you say the words that once changed me
I hear you play that 12-inch I bought you
I hope you feel the same way now as you did then
But you probably don't feel anything...

I hold your hand so you won't steal anything
I take your drugs so you can't feel anything
I hold you tight so you don't lose everything
But I can't hold you like this forever
So I guess I'll lose you...
