FANMIX: This is {NOT} a Love Story
The latest of my Dollhouse fanmixes.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This mix came about from the song "I Can't Decide" by The Scissor Sisters. I originally planned on it being another love/hate fanmix similar to that of Bad Romance, but then I was listening to the soundtrack of (500) Days of Summer and the first track "A Story of Boy Meets Girl" reminded me perfectly of Adelle and by extension Dominic. The narrative of that track dictated that I would approach this mix in a non-linear fashion like the movie did, being that it would go from their first meeting to their breakup, or in their case his betrayal, and then work backwards. I realized this worked out well remembering Adelle's line in Spy in the House of Love, "How did I not see this coming." So without further ado, here's the mix for your enjoyment.
A Story of Boy Meets Girl//Mychael Danna and Rob Simonson
This is a story of boy meet girl.
The boy, Tom Hansen of Margate, New Jersey
grew up believing that he would never truly be happy
until that day he met "the one."
This belief stemmed from early exposure to sad British prop music
And a total misreading of the movie, The Graduate.
The girl, Summer Finn, of Chinneacoug, Michigan did not share this belief
Since the disinteregration of her parents marriage she had only loved two things.
The first was her long dark hair.
The second, was how easly she could cut it off, and feel nothing.
Tom meets summer on January 8th.
He knows almost immediately, she's who he's been searching for.
This is a story of boy meets girl,
but you should know up front,
This is not a love story.
No, I Don't Remember//Anna Ternheim
No I don't remember
What brought us to this
What places we blindly passed
What turns we missed
When things really mattered
And we really cared
When simply being was easy
Just having you there
I was on a downslide, wasting my days
When I met you, I came to, such a lovely place
We laughed and cried our way through
The days and nights, the weeks and months
And all the seasons, ups and downs
Remind me of how, I used to feel
Remind me of who, I used to be back when
Nothing could come between us then
That thought would never leave us
'Cus I don't remember
Love needles in the hay
The life I knew by heart, and lived everyday
The secret codes and signs, you and I, and eye to eye
Wake me up, hurt me, you have to
I forgot how to cry
Remind me of how, I used to feel
Remind me of who, I used to be back when
Nothing could come between us then
That thought would never leave us
So remind me of how, I used to feel
Remind me of who, I used to be back when
Nothing could come between us then
That thought would never leave us when
Nothing could come between us then
That thought would never leave us.
Are You Hurting the One You Love?//Florence + The Machine
Are you hurting the one you love?
You say you've found Heaven but you can't find God.
Are you hurting the one you love?
Bite your tongue till it tastes like blood.
Are you hurting the one you love?
So many glasses on the tabletop.
Are you hurting the one you love?
You'd like to stay in heaven but the rules are too tough.
Tough,
It's just too tough.
Tough,
It's just too tough.
Are you hurting the one you love?
When they watched the walls, and the ticking clock.
Are you hurting the one you love?
And was it something you could not stop.
Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.
Are you hurting the one you love?
When you leave them sleeping on the hollow ground.
Are you hurting the one you love?
And lost for themselves.
Are you hurting the one you love?
And if heaven knows then who will stop.
Are you hurting the one you love?
You said you got to heaven, but it wasn't enough.
Love Ridden//Fiona Apple
Love ridden, I will look at you
With the focus I gave to my birthday candles
I've wished on the lidded blue flames under your brow
And, baby, I wished for you
Nobody sees when you are lyin' in your bed
And I wanna crawl in with you but I cry instead
I want your warm but it will only make me colder when it's over
So I can't tonight, baby
No, not baby anymore
If I need you, I'll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while we'll only have to wave
My hand won't hold you down no more
The path is clear to follow through
I stood too long in the way of the door
And now I'm givin' up on
You
No, not baby anymore
If I need you, I'll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while we'll only have to wave
No, not baby anymore
If I need you, I'll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while we'll only have to wave
Secret Garden//Bruce Springsteen
She'll let you in her house
If you come knockin' late at night
She'll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside
But there's a secret garden she hides
She'll let you in her car
To go drivin' round
She'll let you into the parts of herself
That'll bring you down
She'll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don't think twice
You've gone a million miles
How far'd you get
To that place where you can't remember
And you can't forget
She'll lead you down a path
There'll be tenderness in the air
She'll let you come just far enough
So you know she's really there
She'll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She's got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away
What Have I Done//Anna Ternheim
You are my everything
My head and my heart
My mind my wing
I could give all again
I'm never sure of anything with you
Jokes and laughs the teardrops too
The games the fun the travels too
The sun go through it all with you
All good things now come from you
I hope you feel the way I do
I hope you give yourself up too
I'm damned to feel the way I do
What have I done to fall so hard for you
I give my everything
My head and my heart my mind my wing
The past the present tomorrow too
I'll spend my final day with you
I hope you feel the way I do
I hope you give yourself up too
I'm damned to feel the way I do
What have I done to fall so hard for you
I hope you feel the way I do
I hope you give yourself up too
I'm damned to feel the way I do
What have I done to fall so hard for you
Nicest Thing//Kate Nash
All I know is that you're so nice
You're the nicest thing I've seen
I wish that we could give it a go
See if we could be something
I wish I was your favourite girl
I wish you thought I was the reason you are in the world
I wish my smile was your favourite kind of smile
I wish the way that I dressed was your favourite kind of style
I wish you couldn't figure me out
But you always wanna know what I was about
I wish you'd hold my hand when I was upset
I wish you'd never forget the look on my face when we first met
I wish you had a favourite beauty spot that you loved secretly
'Cause it was on a hidden bit that nobody else could see
Basically, I wish that you loved me
I wish that you needed me
I wish that you knew when I said two sugars
Actually, I meant three
I wish that without me your heart would break
I wish that without me you'd be spending the rest of your nights awake
I wish that without me you couldn't eat
I wish I was the last thing on your mind before you went to sleep
All I know
Is that you're the nicest thing I've ever seen
I wish that we could see
If we could be something
I Can't Decide//Scissor Sisters
It's not easy having yourself a good time
Greasing up those bets and betters
Watching out they don't four-letters
Fuck and kiss you both at the same time
Smells like something I've forgotten
Curled up died and now it's rotton
I'm not a ganster tonight
Don't want to be a bad guy
I'm just a loner, baby
And now you've gotten in my way
I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll prob'ly go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
It's a bitch convincing people to like you
If I stop now call me a quitter
If lies were cats you'd be litter
Please everyone isn't like you
Dancing jigs until I'm crippled
Slug ten drinks I won't get pickled
I've got to hand it to you
You've played by all the same rules
It's takes the truth to fool me
And now you've made me angry
I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll prob'ly go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
Oh, I could throw you in a lake
Or feed you poisoned birthday cake
I won't deny I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Oh, I could bury you alive
But you might crawl out with a knife
And kill me when I'm sleeping
That's why
I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll prob'ly go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
Liar//Emilie Autumn
I want to hold you to the sun
I want to be your faithful one
I want to show you all the beauty
You don't even know you hold
I'm hurting you for your own good
I'd die for you - you know I would
I'd give up all my wealth
To buy you back the soul you never sold
I want to mix our blood
And put it in the ground
So you can never leave
I want to earn your trust
Your faith your heart
You'll never be deceived
Liar Liar Liar Liar
I want to heal you pretty sweet
I'll throw rose petals at your feet
I'll spend eternity
Comparing all my poetry to yours
I want to see love through your eyes
You'll never have to compromise
I'll give up all my fame
To fight your demons and your bloody wars
I want to mix our blood
And put it in the ground
So you can never leave
I want to earn your trust
Your faith your heart
You'll never be deceived
Are you suffering?
Are you suffering?
Are you suffering?
Are you suffering?
Are you suffering?
Show me your suffering
I want your beautiful suffering
I want to see your pain
Are you suffering?
Show me your suffering
I want your beautiful suffering
I want it
I want it
I want to mix our blood
And put it in the ground
So you can never leave
I want to earn your trust
Your faith your heart
You'll never be deceived
I want to mix our blood
And put it in the ground
So you can never leave
I want to earn your trust
Your faith your heart
You'll never be deceived
Liar Liar Liar Liar
I want to mix our blood
And put it in the ground
So you can never leave
Kiss With a Fist//Florence + The Machine'
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate
over my head
then i set fire to our bed
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate
over my head
then i set fire to our bed
My black eye casts no shadow
your red eye sees no pain
your slaps don't stick
your kicks don't hit
so we remain the same
blood sticks and
sweat drips
break the lock if it don't fit
a kick in the teeth is good for some
a kiss with a fist is better than none
a-woah a kiss with a fist is better than none
broke your jaw once before spilt your blood upon the floor
you broke my leg in return
sit back and watch the bed burn
well love sticks sweat drips
break the lock if it don't fit
a kick in the teeth is good for some
a kiss with a fist is better than none
a-woah a kiss woth a fist is better than none
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate over my head
then i set fire to our bed
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate over my head
then i set fire to our bed
Us//Regina Spektor
They made a statue of us
and put it on a mountaintop
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum, take photographs of fun
have fun
they'll name a city after us
and later say it's all our fault
then they'll give us a talking to
then they'll give us a talking to
cause they've got years of experience
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
we wear our scarves just like a noose
but not cause we want eternal sleep
and though our parts are slightly used
new ones are slave labor you can keep
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare and us
The sculptor's momma sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
Ashes and Wine//A Fine Frenzy
Don't know what to do anymore
I've lost the only love worth fighting for
I'll drown in my tear storming sea
That would show you,
That would make you hurt like me
All the same,
I don't want mud-slinging games
It's just a shame
To let you walk away
Is there a chance,
A fragment of light
At the end of the tunnel,
A reason to fight
Is there a chance
You may change your mind
Or are we ashes in wine?
Don't know if our fate's already sealed
This day's a spinning circus on a wheel
And I'm ill with the thought of your kiss
Coffee laced, intoxicating on her lips
Shut it out
I've got no claim on you now
Not allowed
To wear your freedom down
Is there a chance,
A fragment of light
At the end of the tunnel,
A reason to fight
Is there a chance
You may change your mind
Or are we ashes in wine?
I'll tear myself away
That is what you need
There is nothing left to say, but
Is there a chance,
A fragment of light
At the end of the tunnel,
A reason to fight
Is there a chance
You may change your mind
Or are we ashes in wine?
Weeping Willow//The Hush Sound
The snow won't stick to the weeping willows
the cold air won't blow open the windows
You've made it through the storm this far
You can do this, dear, it won't be hard
The snow won't stick to the weeping willows
There will be tomorrow
the sun will light a sea of sorrow
Tonight it set and took our friend
If I could do one thing, I'd bring him back
Snow won't stick to the weeping willows
Summer was painted on our skin
and those secrets hidden in our childish lips
they would die for a kiss
Fall was always left in your eyes
just a fleck of yellow light
like the sunrise
like the twilight
My Heart Still Beats for You//Anna Ternheim
Hard to believe how people move
Falling out of love with you
Tearing down all the walls and love, the chaos
Thought again, of driving by, the place we meet
You and I, where it started, how we lived, together always
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
After all, it's always you
You came down, hard that summer
I started to dance, remember
Everything, not a thought of you
And I lied alot too
Maybe to forget you
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
After all, it's always you
I come back too
I come back too you
I come back too you
I come back too you
Castle Down//Emilie Autumn
You can see that I swim
Through the sea of painful
You have watched as I pull
Myself from the floor
And you were there when I
Built my tower like pebbles in the rain
Trying to balance all that I had left
With what I didn't have anymore
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
You seem so devoted
Your love is unconditional
You were self-promoted
I never asked you
You were my everything
My apparitional faith
Where are you when I am screaming to my God
What am I coming to
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
If I had another place to go
Would you break me, is it that you know
I have no choice but to rebuild again
I'm tied so hard I can't remember when
I last walked free upon these feet of mine
But I'll draw the line
There will come a time
When I am stronger
Your words won't hurt any longer
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there is nothing nothing left
'Til there is nothing nothing left
'Til there is nothing left
And would you tear my castle down
Would you tear my castle down
Would you tear my castle down
Foundations//Kate Nash
Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that look in your eye
When I'm tellin' a story and you find it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go along with it, then drop it
And humiliate me in front of our friends
Then I'll use that voice that you find annoyin'
And say something like:
"Yeah, intelligent input, darlin'
Why don't you just have another beer, then?"
Then you'll call me a bitch
And everyone we're with will be embarrassed
And I won't give a shit
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
You said I must eat so many lemons 'cause I am so bitter
I said:
"I'd rather be with your friends, mate
'Cause they are much fitter,"
Yes, it was childish and you got aggressive
And I must admit that I was a bit scared
But it gives me thrills to wind you up
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
Your face is pasty 'cause you've gone and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to look at your face 'cause it's makin' me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I only got these yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered with this
Well, I'll leave you there till the mornin'
And I purposely won't turn the heating on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't

I'm not a ganster tonight
Don't want to be a bad guy
I'm just a loner, baby
And now you've gotten in my way
I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll prob'ly go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
It's a bitch convincing people to like you
If I stop now call me a quitter
If lies were cats you'd be litter
Please everyone isn't like you
Dancing jigs until I'm crippled
Slug ten drinks I won't get pickled
I've got to hand it to you
You've played by all the same rules
It's takes the truth to fool me
And now you've made me angry
I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll prob'ly go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
Oh, I could throw you in a lake
Or feed you poisoned birthday cake
I won't deny I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Oh, I could bury you alive
But you might crawl out with a knife
And kill me when I'm sleeping
That's why
I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll prob'ly go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
Liar//Emilie Autumn
I want to hold you to the sun
I want to be your faithful one
I want to show you all the beauty
You don't even know you hold
I'm hurting you for your own good
I'd die for you - you know I would

I'll throw rose petals at your feet
I'll spend eternity
Comparing all my poetry to yours
I want to see love through your eyes
You'll never have to compromise
I'll give up all my fame
To fight your demons and your bloody wars
I want to mix our blood
And put it in the ground
So you can never leave
I want to earn your trust
Your faith your heart
You'll never be deceived
Are you suffering?
Are you suffering?

Your faith your heart
You'll never be deceived
Liar Liar Liar Liar

And put it in the ground
So you can never leave
Kiss With a Fist//Florence + The Machine'
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate
over my head
then i set fire to our bed
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate
over my head
then i set fire to our bed
My black eye casts no shadow
your red eye sees no pain
your slaps don't stick
your kicks don't hit
so we remain the same
blood sticks and
sweat drips
break the lock if it don't fit
a kick in the teeth is good for some
a kiss with a fist is better than none
a-woah a kiss with a fist is better than none
broke your jaw once before spilt your blood upon the floor
you broke my leg in return
sit back and watch the bed burn
well love sticks sweat drips
break the lock if it don't fit
a kick in the teeth is good for some
a kiss with a fist is better than none
a-woah a kiss woth a fist is better than none
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate over my head
then i set fire to our bed
you hit me once
i hit you back
you gave a kick
i gave a slap
you smashed a plate over my head
then i set fire to our bed
Us//Regina Spektor
They made a statue of us
and put it on a mountaintop
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum, take photographs of fun
have fun
they'll name a city after us
and later say it's all our fault
then they'll give us a talking to
then they'll give us a talking to
cause they've got years of experience
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
we wear our scarves just like a noose
but not cause we want eternal sleep
and though our parts are slightly used
new ones are slave labor you can keep
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare and us
The sculptor's momma sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
Ashes and Wine//A Fine Frenzy
Don't know what to do anymore
I've lost the only love worth fighting for
I'll drown in my tear storming sea
That would show you,
That would make you hurt like me
All the same,
I don't want mud-slinging games
It's just a shame
To let you walk away
Is there a chance,
A fragment of light
At the end of the tunnel,
A reason to fight
Is there a chance
You may change your mind
Or are we ashes in wine?
Don't know if our fate's already sealed
This day's a spinning circus on a wheel
And I'm ill with the thought of your kiss
Coffee laced, intoxicating on her lips
Shut it out
I've got no claim on you now
Not allowed
To wear your freedom down
Is there a chance,
A fragment of light
At the end of the tunnel,
A reason to fight
Is there a chance
You may change your mind
Or are we ashes in wine?
I'll tear myself away
That is what you need
There is nothing left to say, but
Is there a chance,
A fragment of light
At the end of the tunnel,
A reason to fight
Is there a chance
You may change your mind
Or are we ashes in wine?
Weeping Willow//The Hush Sound
The snow won't stick to the weeping willows
the cold air won't blow open the windows
You've made it through the storm this far
You can do this, dear, it won't be hard
The snow won't stick to the weeping willows
There will be tomorrow
the sun will light a sea of sorrow
Tonight it set and took our friend
If I could do one thing, I'd bring him back
Snow won't stick to the weeping willows
Summer was painted on our skin
and those secrets hidden in our childish lips
they would die for a kiss
Fall was always left in your eyes
just a fleck of yellow light
like the sunrise
like the twilight
My Heart Still Beats for You//Anna Ternheim
Hard to believe how people move
Falling out of love with you
Tearing down all the walls and love, the chaos
Thought again, of driving by, the place we meet
You and I, where it started, how we lived, together always
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
After all, it's always you
You came down, hard that summer
I started to dance, remember
Everything, not a thought of you
And I lied alot too
Maybe to forget you
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
My heart, still beats, for you
After all, it's always you
I come back too
I come back too you
I come back too you
I come back too you
Castle Down//Emilie Autumn
You can see that I swim
Through the sea of painful
You have watched as I pull
Myself from the floor
And you were there when I
Built my tower like pebbles in the rain
Trying to balance all that I had left
With what I didn't have anymore
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
You seem so devoted
Your love is unconditional
You were self-promoted
I never asked you
You were my everything
My apparitional faith
Where are you when I am screaming to my God
What am I coming to
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
If I had another place to go
Would you break me, is it that you know
I have no choice but to rebuild again
I'm tied so hard I can't remember when
I last walked free upon these feet of mine
But I'll draw the line
There will come a time
When I am stronger
Your words won't hurt any longer
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there is nothing nothing left
'Til there is nothing nothing left
'Til there is nothing left
And would you tear my castle down
Would you tear my castle down
Would you tear my castle down
Foundations//Kate Nash
Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that look in your eye
When I'm tellin' a story and you find it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go along with it, then drop it
And humiliate me in front of our friends
Then I'll use that voice that you find annoyin'
And say something like:
"Yeah, intelligent input, darlin'
Why don't you just have another beer, then?"
Then you'll call me a bitch
And everyone we're with will be embarrassed
And I won't give a shit
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
You said I must eat so many lemons 'cause I am so bitter
I said:
"I'd rather be with your friends, mate
'Cause they are much fitter,"
Yes, it was childish and you got aggressive
And I must admit that I was a bit scared
But it gives me thrills to wind you up
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
Your face is pasty 'cause you've gone and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to look at your face 'cause it's makin' me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I only got these yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered with this
Well, I'll leave you there till the mornin'
And I purposely won't turn the heating on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And every time we fight, I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
