    This is a bad-love song... about a destructive relationship that keeps pulling you in deeper.
    CD: "Poor Impulse Control"   Label: None
    Credits: words/music by Chris Bethea

    Story Behind the Song
    This song was written about a horrible relationship I was in. I had fallen for a girl who was completely wrong for me. The worst part was, I knew exactly how awful she was, but couldn't stop myself from wanting her.

    Eventually, I got over it, and this song is the result.

    Musically, this song was the second recorded for the "Poor Impulse Control" demos, and the first which was recorded in a decent studio. There are numerous overdubs (I think at one point there are seven guitars playing at once), better drums and a very different sound... much more aggressive than what I had done to date.

    Lyrics
    I don't understand you
    Not as if you wanted me to
    I don't want to go where
    There's nothing there
    I don't want to be with you
    I don't want to do what you do
    I just want to find a way to
    Run away, to hide away from you

    You drag me down I can't resist
    This honeyed poison on my lips
    I know that I should get away
    And still you always make me stay
    I wish that I could get away

    Tell me what's your secret
    How you keep me tied up in these chains
    Look into your soul I think there's
    Nothing there at all
    I don't want to be with you
    But it seems there's nothing I can do
    Now you've tied me down and there is
    Nowhere that I'd rather be 'cos

    You drag me down I can't resist
    This honeyed poison on my lips
    I know that I should get away
    And still you always make me stay
    I wish that I could get away
