Thumbtack

[Verse 1]
Somewhere in the village you're a star
Something’s feeling different
I’ll pretend I don’t remember
What it’s like when you’re around
Why I asked you to get out
Of California and you did

[Chorus]
You're a thumbtack in my side
A dog bite
You distract
From what's worse so I will let you
Keep a ball chain on my leg
Keep fucking with my head
'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

[Verse 2]
Somewhere in the village at a bar
You lie about the business
To someone who won't remember
What it’s like when you’re around
Why I asked you to get out
Of my apartment
And you left

[Chorus]
You're a thumbtack in my side
A dog bite
You distract
From what's worse so I will let you
Keep a ball chain on my leg
Keep fucking with my head
'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

[Verse 3]
"Laura" by Bat For Lashes played on the comedown
When you get drunk you get nice
So I will be your shadow
Take me to hell and then
Keep me out of my own mind

'Cause letting you in my head
Is easier than my obsession
You're not even a good friend
But I'll let you act like that's the problem

[Chorus]
A thumbtack in my side
A dog bite
You distract
From what's worse so I will let you
Keep a ball chain on my leg
Keep fucking with my head
'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

[Outro]
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
