Easy Come, Easy Go

I cut you out, don't be so typical

Putting my tap shoes on like eggshells when I dance around you

So work it out, why be so difficult?

I'm pouring salt around the cemetery, licking my wounds

Like it's too late to fight on

Spitting on the shoulder that you used to cry on

So dry your eyes, don't make it cyclical

It goes around, goes around, goes around, yeah

You only love me when I'm out of control

Easy come, easy go

You only love me when I'm out on the road

Easy come, easy go

And if I found you down in the river below

Beneath the cliff's head, out in the shallows

The water so blue, that it was red as a rose

My pot of gold, you were the rainbow

I'll be the violet, you'll be the violence

Screaming your white noise, I sit in silence

So shut your mouth, why be so difficult?

It comes around, goes around, goes around, yeah

You only love me when I'm out of control

Easy come, easy go

You only love me when I'm out on the road

Easy come, easy go

And in the ashes of our love, there came a gift as from above

Can't believe my eyes, and look into the skies and wonder why

Why'd you let me go? Why'd you leave me slow?

Why'd you leave me out to dry myself?

Why do I look into the mirror and still see you?

Why does my face seem to turn black and blue?

With the bruises of our love, thrown away like a dove in the air

And all I have is all I am

You only love me when I'm out of control

Easy come, easy go

You only love me when I'm out on the road

Easy come, easy go
