Wreckage Lyrics

If disappointment was like a drug
I've overdosed again
I can't take the razor sharp edge
Off your crooked grin
I lost the war, I lost it all
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 onto 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 knew that I really loved you
I loved you first
You knew I'd take what you were giving
You could do your worst, your worst
If disappointment was like a drug
I've overdosed again
I can't take the razor sharp edge
Off your stupid 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
