Constant State Of Want

歌詞

I never thought I'd give up on you But sometimes you've got to do What you've got to do We've been engaged in a tug of war I don't want to play this game anymore You act content with the status quo I think any second everything will blow You seem so blissfully unaware Of building friction in the air I'm living in a constant state of want I'm always wanting more than you will give You're living in a constant state of pulling away from me This is no way to live Our friends think we have got it made Our plate is full our dues are paid They see no straining at the seams We've learned to live within our means But if they spied on us at night Oh no they would not hear us fight But they'd feel the tension in the air That you're pretending is not there I'm living in a constant state of want I'm always wanting more than you will give You're living in a constant state of pulling away from me This is no way to live No way to live for two people Who started out with the best of intentions No way to live you fight for privacy I fight for your attention I'd rather live all by myself Than freefall down this burning well You tell me everything is OK I look in your eyes you look away You are content with the status quo I know any second everything will blow I find it impossible now to bear A love that's turned into despair I'm living in a constant state of want I'm always wanting more than you can give You're living in a constant state of pulling away from me This is no way to live
