Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been dreaming of the things I've learnt about a boy
Who's bleeding, celebrate to elevate
The joy is not the same without the pain
[Verse 2]
Ipso facto
Using up your oxygen, you know I'm shallow
Calling out for extra help
You've got to let me in or let me out
[Chorus]
Ooh, something to talk about
Yeah, something to talk about
[Verse 3]
I've been dreaming of the things I've learnt about a boy
Who's leaving nothing else to chance again
You've got to let me in or let me out
[Chorus]
Ooh, something to talk about
Yeah, something to talk about
