Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In my own simple way
I think she wants me only
She said, "Come over right away."
But she's just not that way
Her little soul is stolen
See her put on a brand new face
[Verse 2]
Pull the shades
Razor blades
You're so tragic
I hate you so
But love you more
So elastic
The things you say
Games you play
Dirty magic
[Verse 3]
I should know better than
To think I'd reach inside her
It's all a cloudy kind of daze
She's not so sweet today
She mocks me, I'm no fighter
It all just seems like such a waste
[Verse 4]
Pull the shades
Razor blades
You're so tragic
Hate you so
But love you more
So elastic
The things you say
Games you play
Dirty magic
[Verse 5]
It's oversimplified
It's oversimplified
It's oversimplified
[Verse 6]
Pull the shades
Razor blades
You're so tragic
Hate you so
Love you more
So elastic
The things you say
Games you play
Dirty magic
