6. What's The Use
1. Lick My Wounds
Take me over, drag me down
Trash my name all over town
Fuck me over and don't try to mask it
You shovel that shit down on my casket
2. All Good Intentions
Just because my doors are locked and barred
It don't mean that I'm pushing you away
Things get out of hand, I'm sure you understand
So I let you go, you got lost along the way
Just because my words seem harsh and cold
It don't mean I have nothing nice to say
And it's worth a mention I once had good intentions
But no one else I met ever seemed to be that way
Just because you've got all good intentions
It don't mean that you won't lead me astray
Promises are just lies to gain my trust
And they won't stop you when you up and walk away
3. Wicked Game
4. When Are You Coming Home?
The things you took are unreplaced
Rings of dust where they once stood
Shining bedroom floors are flawless
With deep impressions in the wood
The flannel blanket in a ball
On the bed in which you slept
I haven't changed a thing in this house
It's as it was the night you left
5. No One Wants You When You're Down
No one wants you when you're lonely
They don't want you hanging around
No one wants you when you're hurting
No one wants you when you're down
No one wants you, you've been beaten
They don't want your company
Then you've got nobody
Who loves your misery
6. What's The Use
Don't pretend it's alright, don't pretend you know how I feel
Don't pretend to stay by my side, you're leaving and it's for real
You don't come around no more, don't pretend it's cool
When you're trying not to hurt me you can be so cruel
Don't pretend it's part-time, you just keep your distance
When I asked how long you pretended to listen
Don't pretend it's alright, do what you've got to do
And when you leave remember to slam the door behind you
