The Narcissist

Close to midnight
And we've drunk too much again

I just wanna leave you
I just wanna leave you
I just want to leave you
Needing me, alone

Finger in the ashes
It smudges out like earthy silk

I just wanna go
I just wanna go
I just want to go
Back
Home

Wild and torn
Jailed and wasted

I just wanna take
I just wanna take
I just want to take it all
And fly you away

Maybe I will
Maybe I will
The criminal
And the martyr, still

Bruised and bloodied
I just wanna be famous

I just wanna have you
I just wanna take you
I just wanna save you
I just want to leave you
Needing me; all alone

Well, slowly, I fade (You can't)
Seems you've forgotten about me! (You won't win this)
And completely, I cave (Why can't we)
Hollowed out from all you took from me! (try to fix this?)

I just wanna have you
I just wanna take you
I just wanna save you
I just want to leave you
Needing me; all alone
