Another Word For Desperate

And oh, the awkward ways,
That you recoil when I get close,
And oh, the awful grin,
That greets me when I know I'm wrong,
So down on hands and knees,
Choking, gasping, dripping spit,
I just can't make good on any of these promises,

Then he asked me,
What does that mean?
What's another word for desperate?
Repetition makes an impression,
What's another word for desperate?
I won't be around here for to very long,

So tip the bottle back,
Bubble foam,
And watch it break,
We can all be sure,
Something awful's coming this way,
So take this medicine,
In measured doses,
Take your time,
Cause they'll tear into you!
They will, they will...
They will, they will...

Then he asked me,
What does that mean?
What's another word for desperate?
Repetition makes an impression,
So what's another word for desperate?
I won't be around here for to very long,
I won't be around here for to very long!

And they'll tear into you,
They will, they will...
They will, they will...

Take it apart!
Let it all go!
Holding it back!
It's all just so..!
Why did I care!?
How did it go!?
Wait for awhile!
And I guess that...!
I won't be around here for to very long!
I won't be around here for to very long!
