catch 22
I read you like an autograph You love the spotlight You shoot me like a photograph You get me uptight  You're gunnin' for me every day Go straight for the heart Say you want me, you push me away Say it tears you apart  You're on the inside I'm on the outside Don't matter whose side You take the other side  I can see you walkin' down the aisle You're thinkin' long range I've seen you work the miracle Mile for loose change  You can have it anyway you want Your fancy dinners in the restaurants Even though they leave you hungry inside It's a free ride  You show your bad side It's so undignified Get off your back side You're talkin' suicide  Go and be what you wanna be Sink your time and your hooks in me You can hold me down Take me 'round and 'round and 'round  You catch me when I'm 'bout to fall But you leave me there What really matters doesn't matter at all You don't care  It's hard to figure in your life It's a roundabout You're makin' it so hard to give in But you won't let me out  You take the right side I'm on the wrong side No matter who's side We're talkin' suicide
