[Verse 1]
I can read you like a book
I don't need to say it twice, I never cared for being bright
Bait is on the hook, I don't even wanna bite
I don't wanna give a monkey's, I

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't keep you back, can't reign you in (can't reign you in)
Can't fade to black, can't let you win (can't let you win)

[Chorus]
When nothing works
When nothing works for me
You make it hurt
You make it worse for me
And I let myself down
You make it worse
You make it worse for me

[Verse 2]
To you it's all a game, but all I do is analyse
Words that make me rot inside
To you it's all the same, I'm just a human sacrifice
Use me like a parasite

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't keep you back, can't reign you in (can't reign you in)
Can't fade to black, can't let you win (can't let you win)
[Chorus]
When nothing works
When nothing works for me
You make it hurt
You make it worse for me
And I let myself down
You make it worse
You make it worse for me

You make it worse for me
You make it worse for me

[Bridge]
You were supposed to make it easy, we were supposed to be a team
We were supposed to live some kind of dream, but in the scheme of things
You only wanna scheme
Are you some kind of creep? Words are cheap

[Chorus]
When nothing works
When nothing works for me
You make it hurt
You make it worse for me
And I let myself down
You make it worse
You make it worse for me
You make it worse for me
You make it worse for me
