I've been waitin' all night long
I've been waitin' to sing your song
Tonight, if you help me
Just help me find your key?

I run my hands down your neck
Across your back to another fret
I know you're fragile
You're bound to self destruct

And I can see right through your skin
Your bones are hollow, they're paper thin
Tonight, you're weightless
I know the way you feel

So try, try liftin' all your weight
For a man, a man gone wrong
And try, try wastin' all your days
On a man, a man like me

My love is a lot like yours
It's been crippled by the wars
We wage, we're hopeless
We're on the losin' side

You never speak when we're makin' love
You never mean it when you come to me
With your arms stretched
Defenseless and oblong

So try, try liftin' all your weight
For a man, a man gone wrong
And try, try wastin' all your days
On a man, a man like me

I taste you on my fingers
And I smell you on my lips
I don't know where you're goin'
But you're goin' to slip

Hey, honey, better save yourself
You're never gonna make it
Hey, honey, honey, better save yourself
You're never gonna make it

So try, try liftin' all your weight
For a man, a man gone wrong
And try, try wastin' all your days
On a man, a man like me
