A diamond in the sleaze
Down on bended knees
A thousand grizzled nerves hanging loose at the ends
It's later than you think
It's gone before you blink
Out of the crosshairs and into the crowd
Do you want to see me suffering
Do you want to see me suffering
How could you let a good thing go
How could you let a good thing go
A lion in the cage
Shakes his golden mane
He doesn't care who notices where he's gonna lie
You came to beg a meal
You're older than you feel
The keyboard of your memory is coming apart
It's a weight upon my shoulder
It's a weight upon my shoulder
How could you let a good thing go
How could you let a good thing go
I won't ever let you go
I won't ever let you go
The doctor takes a rest inside a hornets nest
With Polaroids of patients who refuse to be cured
A life lived under glass and stolen Cadillacs
Can you hear the saxophones peeling the paint
Do you want to see me suffering
Do you want to see me suffering
How could you let a good thing go
How could you let a good thing go
I won't ever let you go
I won't ever let you go
I won't ever let you go
I won't ever let you go
