The Loveless - Drag Me Down Lyrics

I wanted to be like the men in the movies
Who always seem to get it right
I wanted to be just like your favorite scene
The hero always wins the fight
A little too late now to start over again
I'm still the same clown masquerading behind a pen
I wanted to be like a star on a screen
At least then it was meant to be

But then the focus changes
I'm blurring through the pages
My heartbeat fading

Drag me down with you
I taste it, yeah
On the tip of my tongue
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with you
I'll face it, yeah
I'm calling your bluff
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with

I thought we would be a happy, ditsy melody
Now we're singing Byzantine
I thought we would be another smile in a magazine
A pretty, perfect little dream
But I'm just a loser, beggar and chooser
You seem to think there's more to the illusion
I think I've lost my thought
'Cause I wanted to be like the men in the movies
Maybe, then I'll get it right

With you
I taste it, yeah
On the tip of my tongue
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with you
I'll face it, yeah
I'm calling your bluff
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with you, oh
On the tip of my tongue
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with you
I'm calling your bluff
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with-

The fear of dying alone
Doesn't hurt half as much
As the feeling of letting it go
After one last touch

Drag me down with you
I taste it, yeah
On the tip of my tongue
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with you
I'll face it, yeah
I'm calling your bluff
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with you, oh
On the tip of my tongue
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with you
I'm calling your bluff
Enough is enough
Won't drag me down with-
