Need You

It's dark in this room

And i don't know just what to do

Should i pour out my heart with a third "i love you"

Cause you never say nothing back

In fact, you never say too much at all

No, i never learned how to react

I know you never learned when to call

Which leads me to the question,

Why are you here tonight?

For one more dark confession,

Or maybe one more goodbye?

So lay me down, lay me down

Kiss me on the mouth

Give me one more chance to learn what love is all about

Stick around, stick around

Let your troubled heart pound

Out to the rhythm of the rain on the roof

And pretend that you need me

As much as i need you.

I need someone to talk to

Just need someone to walk through all of these fake smiles

And fickle trials that i've pasted to my wall

I need someone to cling to

Just want someone to scream to

When i swear i hear shadows against the sheet rock down the hall

So lay me down, lay me down

Kiss me on the mouth

Give me one more chance to learn what love is all about

Stick around, stick around

Let your troubled heart pound

Out to the rhythm of the rain on the roof

And pretend that you need me

As much as i need you.

You saved my life, you saved me twice

You set me free

But out on memory lane

The colors never change

They just bite, scratch and bleed

So lay me down, lay me down

Kiss me on the mouth

Give me one more chance to learn what love is all about

Stick around, stick around

Let your troubled heart pound

Out to the rhythm of the rain on the roof

And pretend that you need me

As much as i need you.
