Give it up, don't try,
is what I tell myself
But it's like running away from rain in the desert
Desert, desert
Stumbled up, blacked out
Don't know how hard I fell
But I've been crawling to you ever since we've been together
I'm working overtime,
following close behind You got my number,
my thunder
That is your thumb that I'm under I'm sinking in your sand
You got the upper hand I got you on cloud nine
You got me on pins and needles
Digging my own grave
Every time you walk that way You bury
me with your lack of good intentions
Honey, you got me begging Hurting on my knees
And it's the kind of pain I can't lose
for the winning I'm working overtime,
following close behind
You got my number,
my thunder That is your thumb that I'm under
I'm sinking in your sand You got the upper hand
I got you on cloud nine You got me on
pins and needles
Self-respect,
there's nothing left But it's where I want to be
I may never find the hammer
laying down on me
You got my number, my thunder That is your eye
I'm sinking in your sand You got the upper hand
I got you on cloud nine You got me on
pins and needles
Hmm,
pins and needles
