Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Whoa, with a **** like me
Whoa, with a **** like me
[Verse 2]
She said please, mercy me, mercy me
Let me fall outta love, before you fuck her, before you fuck her
She begged me, she gave me all her pills
Now my back hurts, she lost control
[Verse 3]
Now she pleading
She on the floor, she on the floor
Baby got her pleading
She on the floor, she on the floor
She said it won't be long
Before she falls out of love
It won't be long before she falls out of love
[Verse 4]
Sandpaper kisses, papercut bliss
Don't know what this is, but it all leads to this
You're gonna leave her
You have deceived her
You're just a bird
Just a bird
[Verse 5]
I tried to kiss you
But you never let me miss you
But you never let me miss you
I thought I told you
I'm not him, I'm not him
Look what you did, nobody forced your hand
And don't you fall for a **** like me, I begged, I begged
[Verse 6]
Now you're pleading
She on the floor, she on the floor
Now you're pleading
She on the floor, she on the floor
She said it won't be long
Before she falls out of love
It won't be long
Before she falls out of love
[Verse 7]
Sandpaper kisses, papercut bliss (Oh, my love)
Don't know what this is, but it all leads to this
You're gonna leave her (If she only knew)
You have deceived her
[Verse 8]
You're just a bird (Just a bird)
Just a bird (Just a bird)
Just a bird (Just a bird)
Just a bird (Just a bird)
Just a bird (Just a bird)
Just a bird (Just a bird)
