Heartstrings

I swear I never meant to hurt you, make you cry I'll never let you close enough to say goodbye I'm only pulling on your heartstrings For the moment, no emotion I'm only gonna hurt you Make you cry Make you cry Can you tell me why You think you can change me? Think you can save me from myself? Dressed in white Maybe I'll break you Maybe I'll take you right to Hell I can't feel a thing All this novocaine Running through my heart I can't feel a thing Numbing all the pain Yeah, I'll take the blame (oh) I swear I never meant to hurt you, make you cry I'll never let you close enough to say goodbye I'm only pulling on your heartstrings For the moment, no emotion I'm only gonna hurt you Make you cry Make you cry When the night's growing cold And your tears, they shed Don't you save your breath By the time that I'm done There'll be nothing left There'll be nothing left (ooh) I can't feel a thing All this novocaine Running through my heart I can't feel a thing Numbing out the pain Yeah, I'll take the blame I swear I never meant to hurt you, make you cry I'll never let you close enough to say goodbye I'm only pulling on your heartstrings For the moment, no emotion I'm only gonna hurt you Make you cry Make you cry Make you cry Cry I don't wanna make you cry But when I do, I won't feel a thing When I do, I won't feel a thing I don't wanna make you cry But when I do, I won't feel a thing When I do, I won't feel a thing No, no, no, no
