I wish I could close my eyes
Wanna keep you from keepin'
But I know there's only one way to go
Got a grip take a sip from my monoton monk
Ringing in my head
Wanna keep you from drinkin' sometimes
All the things, you've said
You down
Pick yourself up off the ground
I wish I could compromise
Come on girl
All the things, you've done
Ringing in my head
You down

Completely cool don't stop keep up

Without regard for a broken heart
Its another year
Livin' in the city, 'cause you're dyin' if you don't

Miss the way that you shock-shock-shock me
Wanna see your eyes wide not so shut
Wanna be with you tonight
Pick yourself up off the ground
Wanna be with you tonight
All the things, you've done
Wanna see your eyes wide not so shut
Pick yourself up off the ground
Follow me to my house and then you rock-rock-rock me

But there's only one way to go

But theres only one way to go
Completely cool don't stop keep up

And I'm goin' alone

'Cause I love the way that you shock-shock-shock me
Wanna keep you from sinkin'
Wanna keep you from keepin' you down
Ringing in my head
Livin' in the city, 'cause your dyin' if you don't

All the things, you've said
I wish I could compromise
Your self-help book shelf is full now
Wanna be with you tonight
All the things, you've said
Got a grip take a sip from my monoton monk
Wanna keep you from keepin'

Wanna keep you from keepin' you down
Your pictures are about to be pulled down

Wanna keep you from keepin' you down
Follow me to my house and then you rock-rock-rock me
No, I know it isn't right
And somehow make it all alright
I wish I could compromise
I'm goin' alone
All the things, you've done
