lyrics

Banging my head against a wall
What do I look like, stupid?
Banging my head against a wall
Only a fool comes back for more

Banging my head against a wall
What do I look like, a fucking idiot?
Banging my head against a wall
I won’t come cos you won’t call

If you were given love
And the love was tainted
Would you just close your eyes
And hold on tight, hope you make it?

If you stumble onto the road
And a car comes round the bend
Would you stand there in the headlights
Just waiting for it to end?

And banging your head against a wall
What do I look like, stupid?
Banging my head against a wall
Only a fool comes back for more

And It doesn’t hurt
It doesn’t hurt for a while
So you do it again
And do it again
The ruts get deeper and the mind just gives in

The whole time I was with you
I barely breathed at all
Try keeping a low profile while you’re nailed to the wall
And now it’s really happening baby
There are changes being made
Love can be a lucrative business
When no-one else is getting paid

And now I’m
Banging my head against a wall
