Meet me at midnight ... Staring at the ceiling with you Oh, you don’t ever say too much And you don’t really read into My melancholia I been under scrutiny You handle it beautifully All this shit is new to me I feel the lavender haze creeping up on me Surreal I’m damned if I do give a damn what people say No deal The 1950s shit they want from me I just wanna stay in that lavender haze All they keep asking me Is if I’m gonna be your bride The only kinda girl they see Is a one night or a wife I find it dizzying They’re bringing up my history But you weren’t even listening Chorus That lavender haze Talk your talk and go viral I just need this love spiral Get it off your chest Get it off my desk Talk your talk and go viral I just need this love spiral Get it off your chest Get it off my desk Chorus Get it off your chest Get it off my desk I just wanna stay in that lavender haze

►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
Baby love, I think I’ve been a little too kind Didn’t notice you walking all over my peace of mind In the shoes I gave you as a present Putting someone first only works When you’re in their top 5 And by the way I’m going out tonight
Best believe I’m still bejeweled When I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer And when I meet the band They ask, “Do you have a man?” I could still say, “I don’t remember” Familiarity breeds contempt Don’t put me in the basement When I want the penthouse of your heart Diamonds in my eyes I polish up real I polish up real nice NICE!
Baby boy, I think I’ve been too good of a girl Too good of a girl Did all the extra credit then got graded on a curve I think it’s time to teach some lessons I made you my world Have you heard I can reclaim the land And I miss you But I miss sparkling …
Chorus
Sapphire tears on my face Sadness became my whole sky But some guy said my aura’s moonstone Just ‘cause he was high And we’re dancing all night And you can try To change my mind But you might have to wait in line What’s a girl gonna do? A diamond’s gotta shine
Chorus And we’re dancing all night And you can try To change my mind But you might have to wait in line What’s a girl gonna do? What’s a girl gonna do? I polish up nice Best believe I’m still bejeweled When I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer

►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff and Lana Del Rey
One night a few moons ago I Saw flecks of what could’ve been lights But it might just have been you Passing by unbeknownst to me Life is emotionally abusive And time can’t stop me quite like you did And my flight was awful, thanks for asking I’m unglued - thanks to you
And it’s like snow at the beach Weird but fuckin’ beautiful Flying in a dream Stars by the pocketful You wanting me Tonight Feels impossible But it’s comin’ down, no sound, it’s all around Like snow on the beach
This scene feels like what I once saw on a screen I searched ‘aurora borealis green’ I’ve never seen someone lit from within Blurring out my periphery My smile is like I won a contest And to hide that would be so dishonest And it’s fine to fake it ’til you make it Til you do Til it’s true
Now it’s like snow at the beach Weird but fuckin’ beautiful Flying in a dream Stars by the pocketful You wanting me Tonight Feels impossible But it’s comin’ down, no sound, it’s all around Like snow on the beach
I can’t speak, afraid to jinx it I don’t even dare to wish it But your eyes are flying saucers From another planet Now I’m all for you like Janet Can this be a real thing, can it?
Are we falling like snow at the beach Weird but fuckin’ beautiful Flying in a dream Stars by the pocketful You wanting me Tonight Feels impossible But it’s comin’ down, no sound, it’s all around Like snow on the beach
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
Your ex-friend’s sister met someone at a club and he kissed her Turns out it was that guy you hooked up with ages ago, some wannabe Z-lister and all the outfits were terrible 2003 unbearable Did you see the photos? No, I didn’t but thanks though
I’m so in love that I might stop breathing Drew a map on your bedroom ceiling No, I didn’t see the news Cause we were somewhere else Stumble down pretend alleyways Cheap wine make believe it’s Champagne I was taken by the view Like we were in Paris Like we were somewhere else Like we were in Paris We were somewhere else
Privacy sign on the door And on my page and on the whole world Romance is not dead If you keep it just yours Levitate above all the messes made Sit quiet by my side in the shade And not the kind that’s thrown, I mean The kind under where a tree has grown
Chorus
I want to brainwash you into loving me forever I want to transport you to somewhere the culture’s clever Confess my truth in swooping, sloping, cursive letters Let the only flashing lights Be the tower at midnight In my mind
We drew a map on your bedroom ceiling No, I didn’t see the news Cause we were somewhere else In an alleyway Drinking Champagne Cause we were in Paris Yes, we were somewhere else My love, we were in Paris Yes, we were somewhere else
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
It only hurts this much right now Was what I was thinking the whole time Breathe in, breathe through Breathe deep, breathe out I’ll be getting over you my whole life You know how scared I am of elevators Never trust it if it rises fast It can’t last
Uh oh, I’m falling in love Oh no, I’m falling in love again Oh, I’m falling in love I thought the plane was going down How’d you turn it right around
It only feels this raw right now Lost in the labyrinth of my mind Break up, break free, break through, break down You would break your back to make me break a smile You know how much I hate that everybody just expects me to bounce back Just like that
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
I remember
Good girl, sad boy Big city, wrong choices We had one thing going on I swear that it was something Cause I don’t remember who I was before you Painted all my nights a color I have searched for since But one thing after another Fuckin’ situations, circumstances Miscommunications and I Have to say By the way I just may like some explanations
Can I ask you a question? Did you ever have someone kiss you in a crowded room And every single one of your friends was making fun of you But 15 seconds later they were clapping too? Then what did you do? Did you leave her house in the middle of the night? Did you wish you’d put up more of a fight When she said it was too much? Do you wish you could still touch … her? It’s just a question
Half-moon eyes, bad surprise Did you realize out of time She was on your mind With some dickhead guy That you saw that night But you were on something It was one drink after another Fuckin’ politics and gender roles And you’re not sure and I don’t know Got swept away in the gray I just may like to have a conversation
Can I ask you a question? Did you ever have someone kiss you in a crowded room And every single one of your friends was making fun of you But 15 seconds later they were clapping too? Then what did you do? Did you leave her house in the middle of the night? Did you wish you’d put up more of a fight When she said it was too much? Do you wish you could still touch … her? It’s just a question
Does it feel like everything’s just like second best after that meteor strike? And what’s that that I heard, that you’re still with her that’s nice, I’m sure that’s what’s suitable And right But tonight …
Can I ask you a question? Did you ever have someone kiss you in a crowded room And every single one of your friends was making fun of you But 15 seconds later they were clapping too? Then what did you do? Did you leave her house in the middle of the night? Did you wish you’d put up more of a fight When she said it was too much? Do you wish you could still touch … her? It’s just a question
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
When the morning came we Were cleaning incense off your vinyl shelf ‘cause we lost track of time again Laughing with my feet in your lap Like you were my closest friend “How’d we end up on the floor anyway?” You say “Your roommate’s cheap-ass screw top rosé, That’s how.” I see you every day now
And I chose you The one I was dancing with in New York No shoes Looked up at the sky and it was The burgundy on my t-shirt when you splashed your wine into me and how the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet it was The mark they saw on my collarbone the rust that grew between telephones the lips I used to call home So scarlet, it was maroon
When the silence came we Were shaking blind and hazy How the hell did we lose sight of us again? Sobbing with your head in your hands Ain’t that the way shit always ends You were standing hollow-eyed in the hallway Carnations you had thought were roses That’s us I feel you no matter what The rubies that I gave up
And I lost you The one I was dancing with in New York No shoes Looked up at the sky and it was (maroon) The burgundy on my t-shirt when you splashed your wine into me and how the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet it was (maroon) The mark they saw on my collarbone the rust that grew between telephones the lips I used to call home So scarlet, it was maroon
And I wake with your memory over me That’s a real fuckin’ legacy, legacy And I wake with your memory over me That’s a real fuckin’ legacy … to leave
The burgundy on my t-shirt when you splashed your wine into me and how the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet it was (maroon) The mark they saw on my collarbone the rust that grew between telephones the lips I used to call home So scarlet it was maroon

Meet me at midnight …
Staring at the ceiling with you Oh, you don’t ever say too much And you don’t really read into My melancholia I been under scrutiny You handle it beautifully All this shit is new to me
I feel the lavender haze creeping up on me Surreal I’m damned if I do give a damn what people say No deal The 1950s shit they want from me I just wanna stay in that lavender haze
All they keep asking me Is if I’m gonna be your bride The only kinda girl they see Is a one night or a wife I find it dizzying They’re bringing up my history But you weren’t even listening
Chorus That lavender haze
Talk your talk and go viral I just need this love spiral Get it off your chest Get it off my desk Talk your talk and go viral I just need this love spiral Get it off your chest Get it off my desk
Chorus
Get it off your chest Get it off my desk I just wanna stay in that lavender haze
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and William Bowery
I spy with my little tired eye Tiny as a firefly A pebble that we picked up last July Down deep inside your pocket We almost forgot it Does it ever miss Wicklow sometimes? Ooh …
They said the end is coming Everyone’s up to something I find myself running home to your Sweet nothings Outside they’re push and shoving You’re in the kitchen humming All that you ever wanted from me was Sweet nothing
On the way home I wrote a poem You say, “what a mind” This happens all the time Ooh …
Cause they said the end is coming Everyone’s up to something I find myself running home to your Sweet nothings Outside they’re push and shoving You’re in the kitchen humming All that you ever wanted from me was … nothing
Industry disrupters and soul deconstructors And smooth-talking hucksters Out glad-handing each other And the voices that implore “You should be doing more” To you I can admit That I’m just too soft for all of it Ooh …
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Aaron Dessner
My knuckles were bruised like violets Sucker punching walls Cursed you as I sleep talked Spineless in my tomb of silence Tore your banners down Took the battle underground And maybe it was egos swinging Maybe it was her Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur
All that bloodshed Crimson clover Uh huh, sweet dream was over My hand was the one you reached for All throughout the Great War Always remember, uh huh Tears on the letter I vowed not to cry anymore If we survived the Great War
You drew up some good faith treaties I drew curtains closed Drank my poison all alone You said I have to trust more freely But diesel is desire You were playing with fire And maybe it’s the past that’s talking Screaming from the crypt Telling me to punish you for things you never did So I justified it
All that bloodshed, crimson clover Uh huh, the bombs were closer My hand was the one you reached for All throughout the Great War Always remember, uh huh The burning embers I vowed not to fight anymore If we survived the Great War Uh huh, uh huh
It turned into something bigger Somewhere in the haze Got a sense I’d been betrayed Your finger on my hairpin triggers Soldier down On that icy ground Looked up at me with honor and truth Broken and blue So I called off the troops That was the night I nearly lost you I really thought I’d lost you
We can plant a memory garden Say a solemn prayer Place a poppy in my hair There’s no morning glory It was war it wasn’t fair And we will never go back to that
Bloodshed, crimson clover Uh huh, the worst was over My hand was the one you reached for All throughout the Great War Always remember, uh huh We’re burned for better I vowed I would always be yours Cause we survived the Great War Uh huh, uh huh I will always be yours Cause we survived the Great War Uh huh I vowed I will always be yours
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff, Mark Anthony Spears, Keanu Torres, Jahaan Akil Sweet
You’re talking shit For the hell of it Addicted to betrayal But you’re relevant You’re terrified to look down Cause if you dare You’ll see the glare Of everyone you burned just to get there It’s coming back around And I keep my side of the street clean You wouldn’t know what I mean
Cause karma is my boyfriend Karma is a god Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend Karma’s a relaxing thought Aren’t you envious that for you it’s not? Sweet like honey Karma is a cat Purring in my lap ‘cause it loves me Flexing like a goddamn acrobat Me and karma vibe like that
Spiderboy, king of thieves Weave your little webs of opacity My pennies made your crown Trick me once Trick me twice Don’t you know that cash ain’t the only price It’s coming back around And I keep my side of the street clean You wouldn’t know what I mean
Chorus
Ask me what I learned from all those years Ask me what I earned from all those tears Ask me why so many fade but I’m still here
Cause karma is the thunder Rattling your ground Karma’s on your scent like a bounty hunter Karma’s gonna track you down Step by step from town to town Sweet like justice Karma is a queen Karma takes all my friends to the summit Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me
Chorus
Karma is my boyfriend Karma is a god Karma’s a relaxing thought …
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
No words appear before me in the aftermath Salt streams out my eyes and into my ears Every single thing I touch becomes sick with sadness Cause it’s all over now All out to sea
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye You were bigger than the whole sky You were more than just a short time And I’ve got a lot to pine about I’ve got a lot to live without I’m never gonna meet What could’ve been, would’ve been What should’ve been you What could’ve been, would’ve been you
Did some bird flap its wings over in Asia Did some force take you because I didn’t pray Every single thing to come has turned into ashes Cause it’s all over It’s not meant to be So I’ll say words I don’t believe
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
Dear reader, If it feels like a trap You’re already in one Dear reader, Get out your map Pick somewhere and just run Dear reader, Burn all the files, desert all your past lives And if you don’t recognize yourself That means you did it right
Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart
Dear reader, Bend when you can Snap when you have to Dear reader, You don’t have to answer Just ‘cause they asked you Dear reader, The greatest of luxuries is your secrets Dear reader, When you aim at the devil Make sure you don’t miss
Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart Never take advice from someone who’s falling apart
So I wander through these nights I prefer hiding in plain sight My fourth drink in my hand These desperate prayers of a cursed man
Spilling out to you for free But darling, darling, please You wouldn’t take my word for it If you knew who was talking If you knew where I was walking To a house, not a home, all alone Cause nobody’s there Where I pace in my pen and my friends found friends who care No one sees when you lose when you’re playing solitaire
You should find another guiding light Guiding light But I shine so bright You should find another guiding light Guiding light But I shine so bright …

We were supposed to be just friends You don’t live in my part of town but maybe I’ll see you out some weekend Depending on what kind of mood and situation-ship I’m in And what’s in my system
I think there’s been a glitch Five seconds later I’m fastening myself to you with a stitch And I’m not even sorry Nights are so starry Blood moonlit It must be counterfeit I think there’s been a glitch
I was supposed to sweat you out In search of glorious happenings of happenstance on someone else’s playground But it’s been 2,190 days of our love blackout The system’s breaking down
Chorus
A brief interruption A slight malfunction I’d go back to wanting Dudes who give nothing I thought we had no chance … And that’s romance Let’s dance
Glitch Five seconds later I’m fastening myself to you with a stitch And I’m not even sorry Nights are so starry Blood moonlit It must be counterfeit I think there’s been a glitch
Draw the cat eye sharp enough to kill a man You did some bad things but I’m the worst of them Sometimes I wonder which one will be your last lie They say looks can kill and I might try I don’t dress for women I don’t dress for men
Lately I’ve been dressing for revenge I don’t start shit but I can tell you how it ends Don’t get sad, get even So on the weekends I don’t dress for friends Lately I’ve been dressing for revenge
She needed cold hard proof so I gave her some She had the envelope, where you think she got it from? Now she gets the house, gets the kids, gets the pride Picture me thick as thieves with your ex-wife And she looks so pretty Driving in your Benz Lately she’s been dressing for revenge
She don’t start shit but she can tell you how it ends Don’t get sad, get even So on the weekends She don’t dress for friends Lately she’s been dressing for revenge
Ladies always rise above Ladies know what people want Someone sweet and kind and fun The lady simply had enough … While he was doing lines And crossing all of mine Someone told his white collar crimes to the FBI And I don’t dress for villains Or for innocents I’m on my vigilante shit again
I don’t start shit but I can tell you how it ends Don’t get sad, get even So on the weekends I don’t dress for friends Lately I’ve been dressing for revenge
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
Once upon a time The planets and the fates and all the stars aligned You and I ended up in the same room at the same time And the touch of a hand lit the fuse Of a chain reaction of countermoves To assess the equation of you Checkmate, I couldn’t lose
What if I told you None of it was accidental And the first night that you saw me Nothing was gonna stop me I laid the groundwork And then just like clockwork The dominoes cascaded in a line What if I told you I’m a mastermind And now you’re mine It was all by design Cause I’m a mastermind
You see all the wisest women had to do it this way Cause we were born to be the pawn in every lover’s game If you fail to plan, you plan to fail Strategy sets the scene for the tale I’m the wind in our free-flowing sails And the liquor in our cocktails
What if I told you None of it was accidental And the first night that you saw me I knew I wanted your body I laid the groundwork And then just like clockwork The dominoes cascaded in a line What if I told you I’m a mastermind And now you’re mine It was all my design Cause I’m a mastermind
No one wanted to play with me as a little kid So I’ve been scheming like a criminal ever since To make them love me and make it seem effortless This is the first time I’ve felt the need to confess And I swear I’m only cryptic and Machiavellian ‘cause I care
So I told you None of it was accidental And the first night that you saw me Nothing was gonna stop me I laid the groundwork And then saw a wide smirk On your face, you knew the entire time You knew that I’m a mastermind And now you’re mine Yeah, all you did was smile Cause I’m a mastermind
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser Midnights become my afternoons When my depression works the graveyard shift All of the people I’ve ghosted stand there in the room I should not be left to my own devices, they come with prices and vices, I end up in crisis Tale as old as time I wake up screaming from dreaming one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving ‘cause you got tired of my scheming - for the last time
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me At teatime Everybody agrees I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby And I’m a monster on the hill Too big to hang out Slowly lurching toward your favorite city Pierced through the heart but never killed Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism like some kind of congressman Tale as old as time I wake up screaming from dreaming one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving and life will lose all its meaning - for the last time
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me At teatime Everybody agrees I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money She thinks I left them in the will The family gathers ‘round and reads it And then someone screams out “She’s laughing up at us from hell!”
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me
It’s me Hi
Everybody agrees Everybody agrees
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me At teatime Everybody agrees I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

If you would’ve blinked then I would’ve Looked away at the first glance If you tasted poison you could’ve Spit me out at the first chance If I was some paint did it splatter On a promising grown man And if I was a child, did it matter If you got to wash your hands Oh, all I used to do was pray Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve If you’d never looked my way
I would’ve stayed On my knees And I damn sure never would’ve danced with the devil At nineteen, and the god’s honest truth is that the pain was heaven And now that I’m grown I’m scared of ghosts Memories feel like weapons And now that I know I wish you’d left me wondering
If you never touched me I would’ve Gone along with the righteous If I never blushed then they could’ve Never whispered about this And if you never saved me from boredom I could’ve gone on as I was But lord, you made me feel important And then you tried to erase us Oh, you’re a crisis of my faith Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve If I’d only played it safe
I would’ve stayed On my knees And I damn sure never would’ve danced with the devil At nineteen, and the god’s honest truth is that the pain was heaven And now that I’m grown I’m scared of ghosts Memories feel like weapons And now that I know I wish you’d left me wondering God rest my soul I miss who I used to be The tomb won’t close Stained glass windows in my mind I regret you all the time Can’t let this go I fight with you in my sleep The wound won’t close I keep on waiting for a sign I regret you all the time
If clarity’s in death then why won’t this die? Years of tearing down our banners You and I Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts Give me back my girlhood It was mine first
And I damn sure never would’ve danced with the devil At nineteen, and the god’s honest truth is that the pain was heaven And now that I’m grown I’m scared of ghosts Memories feel like weapons And now that I know I wish you’d left me wondering
God rest my soul I miss who I used to be The tomb won’t close Stained glass windows in my mind I regret you all the time I can’t let this go I fight with you in my sleep The wound won’t close I keep on waiting for a sign I regret you all the time
Oh, god rest my soul I miss who I used to be The tomb won’t close Stained glass windows in my mind I regret you all the time I can’t let this go I fight with you in my sleep The wound won’t close I keep on waiting for a sign I regret you all the time
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
He wanted it comfortable I wanted that pain He wanted a bride I was making my own name Chasing that fame He stayed the same All of me changed Like midnight …
My town was a wasteland Full of cages, full of fences Pageant queens and big pretenders But for some it was paradise My boy was a montage A slow motion, love potion Jumping off things in the ocean I broke his heart ‘cause he was nice
He was sunshine I was midnight rain He wanted it comfortable I wanted that pain He wanted a bride I was making my own name Chasing that fame He stayed the same All of me changed Like midnight …
It came like a postcard Picture perfect shiny family Holiday peppermint candy But for him it’s every day So I peered through a window A deep portal, time travel All the love we unravel And the life I gave away
Cause he was sunshine I was midnight rain He wanted it comfortable I wanted that pain He wanted a bride I was making my own name Chasing that fame He stayed the same All of me changed Like midnight
He wanted it comfortable I wanted that pain He wanted a bride I was making my own name Chasing that fame He stayed the same All of me changed Like midnight
I guess sometimes we all get just what we wanted, just what we wanted And he never thinks of me Except when I’m on TV I guess sometimes we all get some kind of haunted, some kind of haunted And I never think of him Except on midnights like this …
►Lyrics: Written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff
Summer went away Still the yearning stays I play it cool with the best of them I wait patiently He’s gonna notice me It’s ok, we’re the best of friends Anyway I hear it in your voice You’re smoking with your boys I touch my phone as if it’s your face I didn’t choose this town I dream of getting out There’s just one who could make me stay All my days
From sprinkler splashes To fireplace ashes I waited ages to see you there I search the party Of better bodies Just to learn that you never cared You’re on your own, kid You always have been
I see the great escape So long, Daisy May I picked the petals, he loves me not Something different bloomed Writing in my room I play my songs in the parking lot I’ll run away
From sprinkler splashes To fireplace ashes I called a taxi to take me there I search the party Of better bodies Just to learn that my dreams aren’t rare You’re on your own, kid You always have been
From sprinkler splashes To fireplace ashes I gave my blood, sweat and tears for this I hosted parties and starved my body Like I’d be saved by a perfect kiss The jokes weren’t funny I took the money My friends from home don’t know what to say I looked around in a blood-soaked gown And I saw something they can’t take away Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned Everything you lose is a step you take So make the friendship bracelets Take the moment and taste it You’ve got no reason to be afraid You’re on your own, kid Yeah, you can face this You’re on your own, kid You always have been

Lock broken Slur spoken Wound open Game token I didn’t know you were keeping count Rain soaking Blind hoping You said I was Freeloading I didn’t know you were keeping count
High infidelity Put on your records And regret me I bent the truth too far tonight I was dancing around Dancing around it High infidelity Put on your headphones And burn my city Your picket fence is sharp as knives I was dancing around Dancing around it
Do you really want to know where I was April 29th? Do I really have to chart the constellations in his eyes?
Storm coming Good husband Bad omen Dragged my feet right down the aisle At the house lonely Good money I’d pay if you’d just know me Seemed like the right thing at the time You know there’s many different ways that you can kill the one you love The slowest way is never loving them enough Do you really want to know where I was April 29th? Do I really have to tell you how he brought me back to life?
High infidelity Put on your records and regret me I bent the truth too far tonight I was dancing around Dancing around it
High infidelity Put on your headphones and burn my city Your picket fence is sharp as knives I was dancing around, dancing around it
Do you really want to know where I was April 29th? Do I really have to chart the constellations in his eyes? You know there’s many different ways that you can kill the one you love The slowest way is never loving them enough
High infidelity Put on your records and regret meeting me I bent the truth too far tonight I was dancing around Dancing around it
High infidelity Put on your headphones and burn my city Your picket fence is sharp as knives I was dancing around Dancing around it
Oh, there’s many different ways that you can kill the one you love And it’s never enough, it’s never enough
Lock broken Slur spoken Wound open Game token I didn’t know you were keeping count Rain soaking Blind hoping You said I was Freeloading I didn’t know you were keeping count But oh, you were keeping count

I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser Midnights become my afternoons When my depression works the graveyard shift All of the people I’ve ghosted stand there in the room I should not be left to my own devices, they come with prices and vices, I end up in crisis Tale as old as time I wake up screaming from dreaming one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving ‘cause you got tired of my scheming - for the last time
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me At teatime Everybody agrees I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby And I’m a monster on the hill Too big to hang out Slowly lurching toward your favorite city Pierced through the heart but never killed Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism like some kind of congressman Tale as old as time I wake up screaming from dreaming one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving and life will lose all its meaning - for the last time
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me At teatime Everybody agrees I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money She thinks I left them in the will The family gathers ‘round and reads it And then someone screams out “She’s laughing up at us from hell!”
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me
It’s me Hi
Everybody agrees Everybody agrees
It’s me Hi I’m the problem, it’s me At teatime Everybody agrees I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
