Lyrics

Headlock

[Verse 1]

I found myself regretting

Our love like cigarettes when I'm drunk

The pain is never ending

I'm tired of pretending, it does

[Pre-Chorus]

Been like this forever

We're not getting better

Long as we're together

[Chorus]

You got me in a headlock, I can't escape

I can feel my skull turn to a grenade

I don't wanna leave, but it kills me to stay

You got me in a headlock, I can't escape

[Post-Chorus]

I fade away, I fade away

I fade away, I fade away

[Verse 2]

I can't go on

I'm dying to forget you

Yeah, I wish I never met you

And I can't believe I let you break my heart

Now all I am is empty

Close your eyes and kiss me deadly

You're the gift the devil sent me

[Pre-Chorus]

Been like this forever

We're not getting better

Long as we're together

[Chorus]

You got me in a headlock, I can't escape

I can feel my skull turn to a grenade

I don't wanna leave, but it kills me to stay

You got me in a headlock, I can't escape

[Post-Chorus]

I fade away, I fade away

I fade away, I fade away

[Bridge]

Been like this forever

We're not getting better

Long as we're together

I fade away, I fade away

[Chorus]

You got me in a headlock, I can't escape

I can feel my skull turn to a grenade

I don't wanna leave, but it kills me to stay

You got me in a headlock, I can't escape

[Post-Chorus]

I fade away, I fade away

I fade away, I fade away
