lyrics

I've got a runaway bag at the end of my bed
I'm still looking for ways to get out of my head
Without waking up when all the green men turn to red

If I were you I wouldn't lean on me
I'm dirty and aching places you can't see
But there you all are waiting for the start of the party

I've got it all figured out
I give you something to talk about
But is that enough to keep you hanging around, oh
Is that enough to keep you hanging around?

Another year another Christmas card
I hope we never see inside each other's hearts
'Cos there's less care there than there ever was at the start

Everybody's got a sorry tale
Everyone's one gunshot away from jail
But I can't bear that you saw me there so frantic and frail

I've got it all figured out
I give you something to talk about
But is that enough to keep you hanging around, oh
Is that enough to keep you hanging around?

If I let you all in can I get you out again?
It's a haunted house in here
And you might want your money's worth of fear
And then come the day when I can finally say
"Yes I'm doing well"
You will all still know me as the girl who came from hell
Came from hell.
