lyrics

I’M TIRED OF KISSING FOLX I’M NOT IN LOVE WITH. NEW LIPS ON MY THROAT DON’T SOLVE THIS. I SWEAR I LIKED YOU BETTER BEFORE YOU GOT WITH HIM, BUT I’LL TELL YOU ANYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW // YOU KNOW I ONLY SING WHEN I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, AND WHEN I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY YOU’LL FIND ME SINGING. IF I LET YOU IN, WHY DON’T YOU PAINT INTO ME THE THINGS YOU CAN SEE ARE MISSING // ‘CAUSE I FEEL FOR YOU, BUT I LIKED YOU BETTER BEFORE YOU GOT WITH HIM, AND WHAT I FEEL FOR YOU IS ONLY LIMITLESS. YEAH, I FEEL FOR YOU, BUT I LIKE IT BETTER WHEN WE’RE SKIN ON SKIN, YEAH, I FEEL FOR YOU, ‘CAUSE THERE’S NO END TO US // DON’T LOCK ME OUT BECAUSE I MISSED A DETAIL, OR BECAUSE I PAINT WITH SOUND INSTEAD OF COLOURS NOW. LIPSTICK’S FOR WEARING WHEN I’M NOT AROUND, EVEN NOW YOU KISS ME LIKE I’M DROWNING
