If disappointment was like a drug, I overdosed again
I can't take the razor-sharp edge off your crooked grin
I lost the war, I lost it all, and I can't get it back again
I can't set you right when you go into a spin
All I can do is survey the wreckage from here
There you were in silk and fur, so very fine to behold
And I was hanging on to your every word and hoping for something more
Then you took my fondest wish and twisted it into a cord
And now here I hang, strung up by my hope for something more
You know that I really loved you
And I loved you first
You knew I would take what you'd given
You could do your worst, your worst
If disappointment was like a drug, I overdosed again
I can't take the razor-sharp edge off your crooked grin
I lost the war, I lost it all, and I can't get it back again
I can't set you right when you go into a spin
All I can do is survey the wreckage from here
