Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Another midnight, another bed
I'm not alone but the loneliness never sleeps
Never leaves, never once
I know a kiss can be hard to measure
But this don't taste nothing like forever
No, it don't, and I won't say it does
[PreChorus]
Oh, I could pretend but I know it won't help
Fooling my, fooling my, fooling myself
Oh no, you know
[Chorus]
You know I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dying
For someone I could die for
Someone I could try for
Fall apart and cry for
Go ahead, risk my life for
Bullet to the brain for
Take away the pain for
You know I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dying
For someone I could die for, mmm-hmm
[Verse 2]
I'm so damn sick of the one-night thing
Can anyone get my heart racing
Like it could, like it should, like it's love?
Oh, I want the kind made for movie scripts
Tell me, does that shit even exist?
Hopelessly hope and pray that it does
[PreChorus]
Well, I could say I don't need anyone else
Fooling my, fooling my, fooling myself
Oh no, you know
[Chorus]
You know I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dying
For someone I could die for
Someone I could try for
Fall apart and cry for
Go ahead, risk my life for
Bullet to the heart for
Fade into the dark for
You know I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dying
For someone I could die for
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Lying if I said I wasn't dying
For someone I could die for
