You don't need a girl like me   I got bruises you can't see   And when the lights go out I won't be around   You don't need a girl like me      You can't have a heart like mine   But you can hold it for awhile   When the lights go out I won't be around   You can't have a heart like mine      There's a rule that goes unwritten   And I break it from time to time   If you're a fool enough to listen   Then I'm fool enough to lie      That's the kind of girl I am   I take off before I land   And even though you think you can   You can't change the way I am      'Cause the rule remains unwritten   I still break it from time to time   If you're fool enough to listen   Then I'm fool enough to lie      You can't change the way I am   You don't need a girl like me
