i hurt myself again today

im feelin a little numb

i could use the pain

i always find myself in this little bind

it's been a few weeks

since you been around

so here i sit with my hands strapped down

patiently awaiting those secret

games i used to play alone

so here i sit all tied up

all alone with all my thoughts

i do not mind if this goes on

i think about what i'll say to you

when you finally decide to go my way

sitting around all painted like a fool

and i don't know how i got this way

and i don't know how much more i wanna take

i know you'll shoot me down and bury me before i get to high

so here i sit all tied up

all alone with all my thoughts

when will i learn to walk away

from those things i do

to make me feel the way i feel

when i'm with you

tonight it's me, myself and I

yeah

solitaire

all this pain i seem

to put myself through

all the ways i find to submit to you

cat'o'nine tails is getting old

and i don't know how i got this way

and i don't know how much more i wanna take

a million ways to change myself and

a million nights to try

so here i sit all tied up

all alone with all my thoughts

when will i learn to walk away

from those things i do

to make me feel

the way i feel

when i'm with you

but tonight it's me, myself, and I

when you come around

do those things you do to me

i hate this game of solitaire

solitaire (solitaire)
