It's late in the evening

And the darkness is taking it's toll

Undressed by this feeling alright

Don't make me surrender it consumes my soul

Ooo oo o

Sweet desperation

Why do you haunt me

Why do you taunt me

And make it so easy to cut me

Your weight is upon me

Why don't you choose somewhere else to go

Waste no more decisions no no

Tonight is for drinking 'till I can't feel at all

Escape while I'm dreaming

This sweet desperation will consume us all

Sweet desperation

Why do you haunt me

Why do you taunt me

And make it so easy to cut me

Your weight is upon me

Why don't you choose somewhere else to go

Sweet desperation

Why do you haunt me

Why do you taunt me

And make it so easy to cut me

Your weight is upon me

Why don't you choose somewhere else to go

Sweet desperation

Why do you haunt me

Why do you taunt me

And make it so easy to cut me

Your weight is upon me

Why don't you choose somewhere else to go
