Real love is ugly but I don’t mind;
Like those bruises on my neck you left the other night.
left half your heart in Tokyo, the other in Anaheim
And now your lungs can’t handle love - it’s too much exercise.
You stayed the night again and it was too soon.
You left your shirt on the floor of my room.
We stayed in bed until late afternoon
and now I’m in love with the feeling
Of your hands in my hair,
Your lips on my neck,
Not sleeping til sunrise
you wanting me back
The last time we talked you said you wanted to come home to come watch me sing at one of my shows
But I know you just don’t want to be alone
And as soon as I’m near you’ll want to be on your own.
If there was no one else around I’d be the one for you
But at this point girls and cocaine are all you want to do
When I’m with him you go out of your mind
If I say I don’t want you would that make us alright? (X3)
when I’m with him you go out of your mind
So if I say I don’t want you would that make us alright?

You know, it wasn't my favorite for a while, but for some reason i decided to listen to it on loop a few weeks ago and now I can't stop thinking about it.
I love the synths, the tone, the lyricism, even the music videos which I feel I should mention!!!
(also, should've been me reminds me a bit of abba which is an automatic bonus in my book) praisedrays

I haven't cried during the first listen of a pop song in a long time, possibly ever. But Marsh just did it to me. This is deeply moving music. burbnluvr
