I talk to you when I know you can't hear me
And I reach for you when I know you're not near me
And I cry for you when I know something's wrong
I believe I'd die for you just to prove that I belong
I was good for you, helped you through your bad days
Stood up for you and defended all your bad ways
And I lied for you every time you cared at all
Now I still wait for you long after you are gone
It's an act of desperation just because I love you
It's an act of desperation when I pretend to hold you tight
It's an act of desperation when I place myself above you
It's an act of desperation when I cry out in the night
Instrumental
I still believe you were right to set me free
I know I would have been wrong to drag you down with me
I'm a fool for you and I will be till I die
I'm just no good for you and I know that you know why
You're a fool for me, you're attracted to my kind
I can see you've lost yourself and that's who you gotta find
It's an act of desperation just because I love you
It's an act of desperation when I pretend to hold you tight
It's an act of desperation when I place myself above you
It's an act of desperation when I cry out in the night
It's an act of desperation when I cry out in the night
It's an act of desperation when I cry out in the night
It's an act of desperation
Instrumental
