I heard her name come around
a beautiful girl outside my circle.
Highly acclaimed for tearing men down.
She grabbed my heart and colored it purple.
I couldn't prepare, I couldn't cool off.
Everyday we went to heaven and back.
But now the hour's dry on her clock;
on down the line she goes.
Left behind, I tried to find salvation in her hand,
a phantom limb. (I've got her under my skin)
Bar the door, I can't afford the cost of what it takes
to see her with him. (and know where she's been)
3, 2, 1, fall asleep. (fall into, fall into sleep)
3, 2, 1, superseded.
Wait your turn, mothers say.
Beautiful girls they mock your patience.
I bet she had a line of boys today
and gave them hope and sent them on their way.
I wish I didn't know how far she throws (how far she throws)
it hurts all the more to see. (it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
I should have cut the cord (cut it)
when she said hello (it's nice to meet you)
because I'm begging for release.

I'm tired of being, I'm tired being, I'm tired of all...
these bad takes, that's what I'm tired of.
