I never thought that it would come to this
The spike the spoon the darkening room
Holed up in my mecca of misery - motel hell
Dancing for the drunken, diseased and the doomed
*I never dreamed it would come to this
I never dreamed it would come to this
I never dreamed it would come to this
I never dreamed it would come to this
Hot hole!
Hot hole!
Hot hole!
Hot hole!
I never thought I would confide in you
Suckled as I am by the righteous roots of envy
And I never thought that it would ever ring true
The more you help me the more I hate you
*Repeat
I never dreamed it would come to this
I never dreamed I'd confide in you
I never thought that it would ever ring true
That you could hurt me the way I wanna hurt you
I never dreamed it would come to this
I never dreamed it would it would come to this
Hot hole!
Hot hole!
Hot hole!
Hot hole!
I never dreamed it would come to this
I never dreamed it would come to this
I never dreamed it would come to this
Sometimes a man has to choose
And do something he doesn't wanna do
Do I live my life with you as my wife?
Or do I go on and pursue my lifetime dream?
I gotta do this for me
'Cuz if I dont I'll probably regret it
But if I do I'll probably regret it
How do I cope?
How do you cope when the one you love is with somebody else
And there's nothin' you can do about it?
How do you deal with the fact that you had a chance
But you chose to turn away for your career?
I gotta take it though it's heart breakin'
It's somethin' that I had to do
But nobody said that it would hurt so bad
So how do I live? How do I deal without you?
It's killing me to know that your heart's with me
But you're with him 'cuz I chose to be in this industry
Money, shows and hoes come along with luxury and pain
Is all you see when you think about it
But this is the life that I was given
So I have to live it to the fullest
But how do I deal in the meantime
Without you?
How do you cope when the one you love is with somebody else
And there's nothin' you can do about it?
How do you deal with the fact that you had a chance
But you chose to turn away for your career?
I gotta take it though it's heart breakin'
It's somethin' that I had to do
But nobody said that it would hurt so bad
So how do I live? How do I deal without you?
How do you deal when you can't be with the one you love
And the one that you love is with somebody else?
(I don't know, I don't know)
And what do you do when you know she don't love him
And she loves me but she just can't stand loving you far away
(I guess I'm gonna have to just)
You just deal with it, deal with it
(I don't want to have to live with it)
You just deal with it, deal with it
(No, no, no)
You just deal with it, deal with it
(I don't want nobody else loving you)
You just deal with it, deal with it
(I don't want nobody else loving me
How do you cope when the one you love is with somebody else
And there's nothin' you can do about it?
How do you deal with the fact that you had a chance
But you chose to turn away for your career?
I gotta take it though it's heart breakin'
It's somethin' that I had to do
But nobody said that it would hurt so bad
So how do I live? How do I deal without you?
How do you cope when the one you love is with somebody else
And there's nothin' you can do about it?
How do you deal with the fact that you had a chance
Everyday I wake up
To another day gone by
Nothing but the open road
And a never ending why
Anything can happen yeah
But nothing ever does
I try to change It's kind of strange
The same as it ever was But look at us
Chorus: How do I deal with you
How do I deal with me
When I Don't even know myself
Or what it is you want from me
How do I deal with us
How do I know what's real
When I don't even trust myself
Or what it is I feel
How do I deal
Every night in the dark I lie awake in bed
How am I supposed to dream
with all the static in my head
(Torn in all) torn in all (in all)
directions (directions)
And I pray for some relief
What can I do but feel the
weight I'm underneath
And grit my teeth
Repeat Chorus
How do I deal with love
Why do I why do I have to choose
Everybody's telling me
What the hell I have to do
How do I deal with us
How do I know what's real
When I don't even trust myself
Or what it is I feel
Now how do I deal
(How do I deal with you)
How do I deal with you
(How do I deal with me)
When I don't even know myself
Or what it is you want from me
(How do I deal with love)
How do I deal
(Why do I have to choose)
When everybody's telling me
What the hell I have to do
(How do I deal with you)
How do I deal with you
(How do I deal with me)
How do I deal with me
When I don't even know myself
Every day I wake up to another day gone by
Nothing but the open road and the never-ending why
Anything can happen, yeah, but nothin ever does
I try to change, it's kinda strange, the same as it ever was,
but look at us
How do I deal with you
How do I deal with me
When I don't even know myself
Or what it is you want from me
How do I deal with us
How do I know what's real
When I don't even trust myself
Or what it is I feel
And how do I deal
Every night, in the dark, I lie awake in bed
How am I supposed to dream, with all the static in my head
I turn in all directions and I pray for some relief
What can I do but feel the weight I'm underneath
And grit my teeth
How do I deal with you
How do I deal with me
When I don't even know myself
Or what it is you want from me
How do I deal with love
(Why do I) Why do I have to choose
And everybody's tellin me
What the hell I have to do
And how do I deal with us
How do I know what's real (Real)
When I don't even trust myself
Or what it is I feel
Now how do I deal
How do I deal with you (How do I deal with you)
How do I deal with me
When I don't even know myself
Or what it is you want from me
How do I deal with love (How do I deal)
Why do I have to choose
When everybody's tellin me
What the hell I have to do
How do I deal with you (How do I deal with you)
How do I deal with me (How do I deal with me)
When I don't even know myself
Or what it is you want from me
How do I deal with us (How do I know what's real)
How do I know what's real
When I don't even trust myself
Or what it is I feel
How do I deal (How do I deal, yeah)
How do I deal
How do I
How do I
How do I deal
How do I
How do I
How do I deal with you (How do I deal)
voices inside me
are dumping and throwing
words I never said to you
you don't deserve it
but I can't forget it
is there any brain to paw?
just too hard to dream about your pain
just too near to hate you tonight
just too far to wish you again.
wake up
stand up
smells like rotted flesh in you
and I sigh...
