Extreme Wealth and Casual Cruelty Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A ghost by any other name
She’s just a frozen satellite
She’ll close her mouth and kiss with her eyes
A rose just goes insane
She spoke soft prose in Catalan
But goes further south when she speaks her mind

[Chorus]
If we were just strangers, then we would fall in love again
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty
And now I can see why everyone acts weird to me
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty

[Verse 2]
A ghost that creeps around
A crystal surface underground
A light shows flowers crushed inside
At most the blooms get high
And stay there frozen underground
But she’s a ghost that smell like a rose

[Chorus]
If we were just strangers, then we would fall in love again
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty
And now I can see why everyone acts weird to me
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
If we were just strangers, then we would fall in love again
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty
And now I can see why everyone acts weird to me
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty
If we were just strangers, then we would fall in love again
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty
And now I can see why everyone acts weird to me
Abandon extreme wealth and casual cruelty
