I read you like an autographyou love the spotlight
You shoot me like a photographyou get me uptight
You’re gunnin’ for me every daygo straight for the heart
Say you want me--you push me awaysay it tears you apart

You’re on the insidei’m on the outside
Don’t matter whose sideyou take the other side

I can see you walkin’ down the aisleyou’re thinkin’ long-range
I’ve seen you work the miracle mile for loose change
You can have it anyway you wantyour fancy dinners in the restaurants
Even though they leave you hungry inside, it’s a free ride

You show your bad sideit’s so undignified
Get off your back-sideyou’re talkin’ suicide

Go and be what you wanna be
Sink your time and your hooks in me
You can hold me down--take me ’round and ’round and ’round

You catch me when I’m ’bout to fallbut you leave me there
What really matters doesn’t matter at allyou don’t care
It’s hard to figure in your lifeit’s a roundabout
You’re makin’ it so hard to give inbut you won’t let me out

You take the right sidei’m on the wrong side
No matter who’s sidewe’re talkin’ suicide
