Got A Hold On Me
Try as I might
I'm a fool in a losing fight
Can't escape the bullet's bite
Cuz the enemy's in sight.
Sign on the dotted line
Take your pick
Have a bite
When seduction starts
I know it won't stop
Till I give you the things
I can't deny
You've got me wrapped up in your cancer
But I'm not quite what you thought I'd be
{You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold and its feelin' good.
You really got control of me
I should've gotten out when I thought I could}
I get my fix for the last time
One more trip to the other side
I scratch my skin
Cuz you leave me dry
I'm makin' deals with thieves and liars
{chorus}
Walk the roads down the boulevards
Past the dollar shows for the bleeding hearts
You've used me up
Down to the last drop
But I'm more than what you thought I'd be
You thought you had a hold on me
You thought you had a hold and its feelin' good.
You thought you had control of me
Should have gotten out when you thought I would
You thought you had control of me
But you never had your hold on me
You never had control of me
You never had control of me, control of me
