Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The sky is falling down
Somewhere there's a tear
If god came running down
It's my cross to bear
[Verse 2]
I am the best around
Test me if you dare
I came to fuck around
And spoil your affair
[Chorus]
I wanna catch you by surprise
I wanna see both your bodies in covers
I wanna cut you down to size
I want you looking over your shoulder
[Verse 3]
I came from the stars
And ordinary people can't believe it when they see me
Tear fashion apart, we are not one and the same
Not cut from that cloth
We know who you are
Ignorant to consequence and vicious at heart
[Bridge]
Tell me I'm wrong
Honestly haven't been careful at all
You're gathering stone, build something tall
You know the ending is my favorite part
And if god's really showing, where do you go then?
Would hate to see you get so anxious and caught off guard
Stay where you are
I was so ready to tear this whole thing apart
Letting you off
[Chorus]
I wanna catch you by surprise
I wanna see both your bodies in covers
I wanna cut you down to size
I want you looking over your shoulder
[Chorus]
I wanna catch you by surprise
I wanna see both your bodies in covers
I wanna cut you down to size
I want you looking over your shoulder
