Let Down

My open eyes they cannot find
the only thing I search for.
Like unlocked lips, my words they slip
back to where I was before.

And I've seen you puke and beg
on your hands and knees
until they're red.
Haven't seen me losin' it,
why don't you just quit?

Break the static feeling,
give me what I'm needing.
Whoa, I thought I'd come around,
but then I let you down,
down, down, down.

Like an echo, repeated slow,
I've heard it twelve times over.
Like shaky hands, not useful when you needed cover.

Go ahead, puke and beg
on your hands and knees
until they're red.
Haven't seen me losin' it,
why don't you just quit?

Break the static feeling,
give me what I'm needing.
Whoa, I thought I'd come around,
but then I let you down without a warning,
tried your best out on me.
Oh, I almost came around,
but then I let you down.

You say I just can't up and quit,
(Then I let you down...)
but your touch is damaging
and I can't quit.

Down, down, down, down.
Then I let you down...
Down, down, down, down
Then I let you down...

Like a back bone, i'll hold my own...

Break the static feeling,
give me what I'm needing.
Whoa, I thought I'd come around,
but then I let you down without a warning,
tried your best out on me.
Oh, I almost came around,
but then I let you down.
