Pent up in a penthouse of my own design Always resist you, most of the time And I’m just a man slowly losing his mind To that twitch and tug on the line Taking me back to when you were mine
Start off in neutral and end up in dumb Between my finger and my dirty thumb Every exit I come to and every red stop sign Feeling that twitch and tug on the line Got me believing you were mine Got me believing you were mine
Try to forget you, replace you if I can Cold sweats and fever, your twisted little plans And baby I get closer to leaving all the time But that twitch and tug on the line Got me believing we’ve got time Got me believing we’ve got time
All worn in and all cashed out No more moves, no more doubt You’ve had your time, I’ve had my fill Now your gonna be just another memory
Start off in neutral and end up in dumb Between my finger and my dirty thumb Every exit I come to and every red stop sign Feeling that twitch and tug on the line Got me believing you were mine
If I didn’t have you, I’d steal you all the same I’ve no greater enemy and no better friend So I carry on just burning up my time ‘Cos of that twitch and tug on the line. ‘Cos of that twitch and tug on the line. Got me believing I’ve got time Got me believing iI’ve got time
