Feeling worn down 
Like a piece of glass 
It doesn't take too much to get yourself to feed your monkey 
Tell some white lies, they can swallow them 
You don't see just how you got into this situation 

Late at night, 
late at night you weep for something better than the secrets you keep laying down, 
Just lay down here close to me, 
and tell me what you want from me. 

And I said Hey now, 
give me the meltdown, 
take it out on me this time around, 
oh no it aint over now I can feel the world spinning round and round and round 

Hey now, 
give me the meltdown, 
take it out on me don't let me down, 
oh no it aint over now I can feel the world spinning round and round and round. 

Wide awake now and your monkey's dead 
You're so perfect that you never really need nobody 
Put your hands down, you're among your friends 
You just take and take and take and take and take and take and 

Late at night, late at night 
You weep but so no better than the secrets you keep 
Stay down, just lay down here close to me 
Pretend you're never leaving me.
