ElephantTalk - II. Progressions of Funk Lyrics

Come a little closer, come a little closer
Just so I can push you away
You hint that it's over, even when you're sober
With every single word that you say
You're tearing me in half, it almost makes me laugh
Thinking you can carve your initials in my heart
It's a disagreeable task, I never thought to ask
"What will you do when you tear me apart?"

Loneliness haunts me
Get away from me
Loneliness haunts me

Loneliness haunts me
Get away from me
Loneliness haunts me

You thought I would stay
When you were the wolf in sheep's clothing
I looked the other way
When you were the wolf in sheep's clothing
Take me to where I belong

You never let me grow, I really should've known
When you don't have an alibi
When there's nowhere else to go, you hold me really low
You hold me close to the fire
You pull me closer to only push me down
You sink your teeth in like a death grip
You crawl around with your hand made crown
With your lies tattooed on your lip

Loneliness haunts me
Get away from me
Loneliness haunts me

Loneliness haunts me
Get away from me
Loneliness haunts me

You thought I would stay
When you were the wolf in sheep's clothing
I looked the other way
When you were the wolf in sheep's clothing
Take me to where I belong
