[Verse 1]
I claim to be an honest man
But in the end I'm just a boy
I can't seem to face up to the facts
The life I'm living is just one big heart attack
[Pre-Chorus 1]
d**h is the hook and you're the bait
[Chorus]
I try to keep myself away
But I can't make it through the day
Gonna lock the bathroom door
So I can have just a little more
I try to keep myself away
But I can't make it through the day
Gonna lock the bathroom door
So I can have just a little more
Try to keep myself away, yeah
Try to keep myself away
[Verse 2]
You know the price is never cheap
I pay it till I fall into a nervous sleep
I haven't seen that girl in years
Just to think of her brings me to tears
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I wonder if she could have loved me
[Chorus]
Try to keep myself away, yeah
Try to keep myself away
Try to keep myself away
There ain't no escape
[Outro]
Try to keep myself away
Try to keep myself away
Try to keep myself away
Try to keep myself away
I'm gonna lock that bathroom door, yeah
So I can have just a little more, a little more, yeah
Try to keep myself (away)
