Baby, I see you've made yourself all sick again
Didn't I do a good job of pretend?
Baby, you're saying that the victim doesn't want it to end

Good. I get to dress up and play the $$#assin again
It's my favorite
It's got personality

I should have seen this %#@! coming down the hall
Every night I spent in that bed with you facing the wall
If I could have only once heard you scream

To feel you were alive
Instead of watching you abandoning yourself


Baby, you can open your eyes now
And please allow me to present you with a clue
If I inflict the pain

Then baby only I can comfort you, yeah

Out of the night we come

And into the night we go
If it starts to hurt you
Then you have to say so
