Run Myself into the Ground

Where did my self-control go?
Did it rise up from my body when I answered the phone
And you told me not to lie to you
And I decided to tell the truth
But I ain’t gonna change for nobody at all
I’m starting to like this new love I have found
I don’t wanna let this dark companion go
I would rather run myself into the ground
Where did my mind wander off to?
Found myself yammerin' on to you
Thought I’d never let those things outside my head
Probably shoulda kept 'em locked away instead
But I ain’t gonna change for nobody at all
I’m starting to like this new love I have found
I don’t wanna let this dark companion go
I would rather run myself into the ground
Everyone’s watching me
And I’m starting to believe
That I can read everyone’s mind
Before I am accused
Your eyes give me the cue
And I am out the door
But I ain’t gonna change for nobody at all
I’m starting to like this new love I have found
I don’t wanna let this dark companion go
I would rather run myself into the ground
