[Verse 1]
Against my better judgment
I will let you in
But keep there to your corner
Don’t go running around again
I just cleaned the kitchen
Everything is glistening
If you don’t make it personal
Then I’m listening
I’m listening
[Verse 2]
When did it occur to you
To let it go to rot?
Barely gave it half and said
You gave it all you got
Now I’ve got a feeling
And I’m chasing it away
Far as I can get from you
And far as I can stay
No, I can’t stay
[Chorus 1]
I’m no simple lover
Claw me half to death and call it
Touch of love’s design
Say it to yourself
Until it sticks
Baby, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine
[Verse 3]
Hallway half occluded
By your silhouette
Never loved your distance
’Til it’s all that I could gеt
Now I cling so tightly to it
Nails make little grooves
I don’t want a soul insidе my living room
[Verse 4]
You have never once
Had a crucial thought
You could die tomorrow
And it wouldn’t leave a mark
I’m not being cruel
Or not much crueler than deserved
If I gave your eulogy
I wouldn’t speak a word
A single word
[Verse 5]
Does your lover know
You play my music on repeat?
I feel badly knowing
She’s behaving just like me
But I have grown a spine
And now I wish the same for her
Nothing I can do to make it better
But I will not make it worse
[Chorus 2]
I’m no simple lover
Meet me at my worst
And I’ll return the kiss in kind
Say it to yourself
Until it sticks
Baby, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine
[Outro]
Say it to the sun
Until the blind become
The only living kind
