Love Is A Fire Escape

from Growing Pains by Cut Your Losses

/

lyrics

He said that he's in a band,
But so am I, so it's not as impressive as he thinks it is.
And then he smiles and takes my hand,
It's no surprise, he's as smooth as the devil and he knows it.

You're so hateful, you're so cruel.
You're so fucking insecure.
I'm no angel, I'm no fool for even entertaining you.
Why can't you say it to my face?
I'm the best mistake you ever made.

He lit a match and fanned the flames,
But in my mind, I believe that his love is a fire escape.
He turned the lock and tossed the key,
To pass the time I pretend he's a prince here to rescue me.

You're so hateful, you're so cruel.
You're so fucking insecure.
I'm no angel, I'm no fool for even entertaining you.
Why can't you say it to my face?
I'm the best mistake you ever made.

You're so hateful, you're so cruel.
You're so fucking insecure.
I'm no angel, I'm no fool for even wanting you.
Why can't you say it to my face?

No!

You're so hateful, you're so cruel.
You're so fucking insecure.
I'm no angel, I'm no fool for even entertaining you.
Why can't you say it to my face?
I'm the best mistake you ever made.

No one hurts me like I hurt myself,
But you see love as something someone sells.
No one hates me like I hate myself,
But the words cut deeper when it's someone else.
