I was cold and lonely and I took you in
Just trying to be kind
Tired of lifelong solitude
My senses undermined
I kept things under strict control
Resisted all diversion
Endless years and false rewards
Lie wrecked in this subversion

All the games to play, all the places to go
I want to surrender, I want you to go
If I were you I'd be out on the town
Oh why oh why are you hanging around a fool like me
Don't be seen with me
A fool like me
Don't be seen with me

Order and duty thrown to the winds
I've lost all sense of reason
In the heat of the day I must stow away
I'm a sinking ship of reason
I've too much to do, I can't stop now
Destruction brings me down
Drag me deeper into murky waters
Smile and watch me drown

Fresh from the cradle, you're a passion lethal
Innocent smiles don't mask the evil to a fool like me
Don't be seen with me

All the games to play, all the places to go
I want to surrender, I want you to go
If I were you I'd be out on the town
Oh why oh why, are you hanging around a fool like me
Don't be seen with me
A fool like me
Don't be seen with me
