[Verse 1]
I'm caught in a crossfire with nowhere to run
I'm keepin' my head down 'cause I've got only one
I'm up on a high wire with nothing but air
I'm feelin' so nervous with so many places to go
But I'm goin' nowhere
I'm ridin' a cyclone, it's twistin' my head
I feel like I'm moving but my feet feel like lead
I'm drowning in quicksand, it's pullin' me down
I feel so abandoned when I, I reach for the sky
I still can't get off the ground
[Chorus]
Please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
[Verse 2]
I'm deep in a forest, I can't find a tree
I'm chained to your heart, but I can't find the key
So show me the way home, I'm too blind to see
My mind's leaning left while my heart tells me it's right
But it seems wrong to me
[Chorus]
Please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
[Bridge]
So you want me to feel then you turn like a wheel
Don't you know that I love ya?
Do I have to explain that I'm livin' your pain?
I can't take it again, but I don't want it to end
[Chorus]
So please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
So please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
I'm caught in a crossfire with nowhere to run
I'm keepin' my head down 'cause I've got only one
I'm up on a high wire with nothing but air
I'm feelin' so nervous with so many places to go
But I'm goin' nowhere
I'm ridin' a cyclone, it's twistin' my head
I feel like I'm moving but my feet feel like lead
I'm drowning in quicksand, it's pullin' me down
I feel so abandoned when I, I reach for the sky
I still can't get off the ground
[Chorus]
Please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
[Verse 2]
I'm deep in a forest, I can't find a tree
I'm chained to your heart, but I can't find the key
So show me the way home, I'm too blind to see

But it seems wrong to me
[Chorus]
Please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
[Bridge]
So you want me to feel then you turn like a wheel
Don't you know that I love ya?
Do I have to explain that I'm livin' your pain?

[Chorus]
So please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
So please stay, go away
Can't you see, darling, that you're drivin' me crazy?
Please stay, go away
Can't you see you're drivin' me crazy?
