Baby don't you go
And keep your troubles on the inside
Suck it up and flow to a man like me
Into a lover for the first time
And I'm taking my time, baby, understand
That I believe in you, I believe in you
And you worry me sick with the pills you take
And all the things you do, the things you do
Trouble don't you crush me to death like this
I want my body when I was young
'Cause I can be afraid of a thing like this
It's just a darker kind of deep fun
And no we never got scared in the all night rave
I was a leading man with my head on fire
But risking my love I was never brave, and so we
And so we cry, we try, get sick and deny, I know why
Then we break it right down in the middle of the beat
Fucked up and loaded, I used to be afraid of it
Break it right down, won't you cover up and leave
You're calling out a message you never seem to
Get across, get across, get across, get across
Come on won't you trust me
You know it's gotta happen sometime
'Cause I can be afraid of a thing like this
It makes me happy for the first time
And do the hours go by with the silent curse
Of all the love you lost, you threw away
'Cause I can be hip to a thing like this
Or I can try, and cry, get sick and deny, I know why
Then we break it right down in the middle of the beat
Fucked up and loaded, I used to be afraid of it
Break it right down, won't you cover up and leave
You're calling out a message you never seem to
Get across, get across, get across, get across
I'm just a sucker for you baby, I cry, cheat steal and lie
I never know why, no I think I know why, 'cause
You know, yeah you know
That the color, cut, shape of the life you build
It only lives in you and that's the hardest part
And losing yourself under silent skin will never get you far
I know it's such a fucker for you
Everything conspires to keep you hungry and afraid
But I won't let them, I won't let them
Turn you into something weak
I'm just a sucker for you baby
I'm just a sucker for you baby
I'm just a sucker for you baby
I'm just a sucker for you baby
