Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
You're a good girl
Though I stink of bad
I need this, I need him, I need her, I need everybody

Why?

But you're my best friend
You slide beneath my shadow
Pretty on the skin
You're my cool friend
The only one I will ever truly leave

As the day ends
And the night begins
These big city lights
(Are) like stars that don't shine bright

As all of us
Depend on love
From those above
That's comfort
The comfort of strangers

Listen
I love you
Way too much
I can't wallow in your reckless recklessness
Slave to all things useful to you
You are a dream to me
I can't recall your name, your face, your smell, your taste, your mouth even

I was kinder then
But not now

I say I don't want to hurt you
But really, I do
I want to caress you like no girl before
Then leave you cold

Hey, you, listen
I said that I loved you
And really I meant it to
I try to keep some symbols of feeling trapped beneath this dusty work of art

I need the comfort of strangers
