What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away in the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt I hurt myself today

Love is the baddest blues This is love, what was I thinking? This is love, what the hell am I, am I gonna do? And that man, he got me sinking To the bottom of the blue My love has come along My dreams become air so My days have arrived, yea sunny Funny

Heaven knows, heaven knows Look at what we have become Empty hearts that spare no one Save yourself, my darling Kill the love that's dying We're forever changing There's no way to save us Just be gone by morning After all is said and done

This animal I have become Help me believe It's not the real me Somebody get me through this nightmare I can't control myself So what if you can see The dark inside of me Somebody help me tame this animal I can't escape this hell

What have I done? Sweet Jesus, what have I done? Become a thief in the night Become a dog on the run Have I fallen so far And is the hour so late That nothing remains but the cry of my hate The cries in the dark that nobody hears Here where I stand at

So, then it's all because of you (all because of you) I got a problem, and I (don't know what to do about it) Taken by the thought of it And I know this much is true Baby, you have become my addiction And it's all because of you (all because of you) So,

I must have kicked them out They told me I was gone You have no plans for me I will set my soul on fire I'll tell 'em What have I become? I'll stay awake Why am I not scared in the morning? I don't hear those voices calling

The feelings I once felt are now dead and gone I've waited here for you for so very long I’ve waited here for you, so long Erase what was Stillborn, I have become Just a shell of a man Stillborn, this I understand

So, then it's all because of you (all because of you) I got a problem, and I (don't know what to do about it) Taken by the thought of it And I know this much is true Baby, you have become my addiction And it's all because of you (all because of you) So,

We used to be friends What have I become to you I don't understand Turn it backwards For me to hurt When everything else is fading We used to be inner circle Take my good word Turn your back on me
