Met you in your shadowed dark
Absinthe bar
You shaved your head
It left a scar
We bunkered down
Windowless room
Our hateful sex
I love, you lose
You bathed me
Laid me down, clean sheets
We took half of that blue pill each
Our vacant dates
Carnival shows
That Ferris wheel
Our highest low
I should have believed you when you said you felt a rope around your neck
Instead I believed you when you said that we were back to back
And I've never been one to ask for a hand
Never been one to take what was given
Never seen love so cold and undressed
Never lived life so lifeless
Oh, my one and only
Only leaves me lonely
Only leaves me lonely
Oh, if I could only
Leave my one and only
Read all of your movie scripts with murder scenes
Familiar faces, all I see
My happy made you sad and sly
Your honest made me beg for lies
A temper tantrum's bloated world
Staccato man, limber girl
The rippling wolves
The paper moon
The dial tone
The dancer's doomed
And I should have believed you when you said you felt a rope around your throat
Instead I believed you when you said you still had hope
And I've never been one to ask for a hand
Never been one to take what was given
Never seen love so cold and undressed
Never lived life so lifeless
Oh, my one and only
Only leaves me lonely
Only leaves me lonely
Oh, if I could only
Leave my one and only
Your creepy creature
My bloodless heart
You fill me up
My shadowed dark
I love you like I love myself
Like no one, like nobody else
I should have believed you when you said you felt a rope around your neck
Instead I believed you when you said that we were back to back
Now I've never been one to ask for a hand
Never been one to take what was given
Never seen love so cold and undressed
Never lived life so lifeless
Oh, my one and only
Only leaves me lonely
Only leaves me lonely
Oh, if I could only
Leave my one and only
