Try To Do Without It

I've given up on give and take

Why feed the hand that slaps your face

You can't win for losin' you own mind

No way to scratch a seven year itch

I've read your mind, now read my lips

I'm only human, flesh and bone

What's the point of draggin' on

I'm trying to do without it

I gave you my heart for a stab in the back

I spent all my time on the table

Getting sawed in half

Trying to do without it

I was digging a hole

now i'm filling it up

I try so hard,

trying to do without it

- your love

I'm better off than hanging by a tread

Don't need a queen

in my king sized bed

To tell me how and when to make it

What good is love that disappears

Comes back crying crocodile tears

It's the same old spot,

the same old situation

A dirty job

crawling from the wreckage

I'll say goodbye and wonder why

I'm still tempted

All that's left is the white flag

that I'm waving
