Send me away
I'm here on my own
Hammer, stutter now
Lets rock, lets roll now
She says I'm obsessed
I say I'm in love
Hold Me
You've done it now
Now send me way out
I feel insecure
And Desperate
But not right now
I feel it now
And you don't see
The way I see
I've got it now
I'm desperate
Desperate
Desperate
I'm better off like this
I'm better off
I'm better off like this
Don't you know I care
No, no
Desperate
Desperate
Desperate
Desperate
I'm better off like this
I'm better off
I'm better off like this
Don't you know I care
No, no
I wish I was myself
Again
I wish I was myself
Again.
