Treading Water

Why do I do this to myself?
I'd follow you down a wishing well

I'll never learn
'Cos I love the way it burns
When you don't show concern
About the pool of blood beside my head
I've lost control
I've placed my bets and fold
I fall asleep so I can dream again and play pretend

My friends say I am treading water now
My friends say I am treading water now

Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
I'd follow you down a wishing well (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
You've got a way to make things worse
You've gotta lie so bad it hurts
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)

I'm treading water now
With my head above the surface I'll be fine
