Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey
[Verse 1]
When I first met her, she was seventeen
Seventeen
Jump like an arsonist to a perfect match
Burned alive
[PreChorus]
We run till no one could find us
Girl, we outrun everyone
[Chorus]
But it doesn't matter now
Just come and love me how
Like the way you used to do
Yeah
[Verse 2]
Is love mental disease or a lucky fever dream?
Fine with either
Gave birth to monsters who will terrorize normalcy, yeah
They'll terrorize
[PreChorus]
If the world exploded behind us
I'd never noticed if it done
Let nobody dare confine us
I'll bury anyone who does
[Chorus]
But it doesn't matter now
Just come and love me how
Like the way you used to do
[Refrain]
Now
The way you used to do
[Verse 3]
My heart's a ding-a-ling
A puppet on a string
C'est la vie
So lay your hands across my beating heart, love
[PreChorus]
If the world exploded behind us
I never noticed if it done
Let nobody dare confine us
I'll bury anyone who does
[Verse 4]
But it doesn't matter now
Just come and love me how
Like the way you used to do
[Outro]
You used to do
The way you used to do
Come and love me now
The way you used to do
The way you used to do
