I love you more than any man, but something's getting in the way 
I do you harm because I can, for the second time today 
Victims we are not of happenstance, but you're a victim all the same 
Stuck inside a circumstance, with your confusion and your blame 

And when I get [bad word]  you take me home and keep me safe from harm 
When I get [bad word]  you take me home 

I ask you for another second chance, but then I drink it all away 
And I get bellicose when you react, for love, [bad word] and dismay 
I was so delicate when we began, so tender when I spoke your name 
But now I'm nothing but a partisan, to [bad word] and my shame 

And when I get [bad word]  you take me home and keep me safe from harm 
When I get [bad word]  you take me home 

You know I'm grateful, I appreciate 
But in fact it's baleful, how I suck you dry [3] 
How I suck you 
How I suck you dry [3] 

I love you more than any man, but I seem to lay it all to waste 
I do you harm because I can, with a joke in questionable taste 
I've such duplicity at [bad word]  so I keep on lying to your face 
Then [bad word] away to wonderland, disappear without a trace 

When I get [bad word]  you take me home and keep me safe from harm 
When I get [bad word]  you take me home 

You know I'm grateful, I appreciate 
But in fact it's baleful, how I suck you dry [3] 
How I suck you 
How I suck you dry [3]
