So with all these costly slips I make
Why did I tell you?
To save myself from shame
I know I should always stay quiet

But with all this strong advise you get
So eager to try
And then the blackest shame
I should know better by now

So what am I doing here?
I'm trapped in your arms
My deceitful heart has led me astray

Two broken bones, four vengeful men
Why did I tell you?
Sleep sound is what I want
But I hardly sleep at all now

So when you saw me coming with that greedy gaze
Trembling and unveiling
Dizzy plans of endless love
You should have walked away
