[Verse 1]
Such a perfect little life pushing glitter with gold
And I hate the way I like it
F.O.M.O. cutting like a knife drinking maraschino
But I can't help myself when I have nothing left
Every time it hits me, I feel so compressed
All your pretty pictures got me so distressed
Knowing I'd just leave it all behind
And every single time, I
[Chorus]
Die for you
I'd die for you
I would die for you
I'd die for you
Ooh, I'd die for you
I'd die for you
I would die for you
I'd die for you
[Verse 2]
So I took a little slice without letting you know
Got enough to make me feel sick
Plain vanilla to your spice, hit the domino
And when I'm rearranged, there will be nothing left
Every time it fits me, I feel so depressed
All your little layers faking interest
Late at night, can't get it off my mind
And every single time, I
[Chorus]
Die for you
I'd die for you
I would die for you
I'd die for you
Ooh, I'd die for you
I'd die for you
I would die for you
I'd die for you
[Bridge]
Every day, every night
I wonder where you are
What you're doing, who you're with
Wishing I could be a part
Of your life, being cool
I wish it could be you
I wish it could be you
Every day, every night
I wonder where you are
What you're doing, who you're with
Wishing I could be a part
Of your life, being cool
I wish it could be you
I wish it could be you
[Chorus]
Die for you
I'd die for you
I would die for you
I'd die for you
Ooh, I'd die for you
I'd die for you
I would die for you
I'd die for you
