Throw a dog a bone, I'll take it if I have to Go real fast like there's somewhere we can get to What's the use of standing right there on the edge if there ain't nowhere to fall What's the use in hangin' on tight to the phone if nobody might call Desperation There's danger in frustration Complicated words slippin' off of your tongue and ain't one of them the truth I'm still desperate for you Tell it like a lie, live it like a movie Give a heart away like it don't mean nothin' to me What's the use in makin' all the plans that we made if you wearen't gonna go What's the use of slappin' on a smile for a face if your eyes don't wanna show Desperation There's danger in frustration Complicated words slippin' off of your tongue and ain't one of them the truth I'm still desperate for you Well it's too damn bad you didn't have a chance to make me your best friend You were too caught up giving too much help and not doin' what you should have been Desperation There's danger in frustration Complicated words slippin' off of your tongue and ain't one of them the truth I'm still desperate for you
