Strange Embrace

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I need blessings in the morning 'Cause there's been silver fish crawling across my bed Since last year at that party when You kissed that girl with the purple hair You carried her down the stairs And you should be ashamed There was a lexical gap between your teeth Fanatical tongue that knows its worth But those words I laughed up gladly And you know I always hated that To be reminded that I gave you everything [Pre-Chorus] You're picking her up Gaining her trust You're taking too much now It's never enough [Chorus] And you may have the world under your covers But you're still so lonely, I can see it in your eyes When every pretty face is just another strange embrace [Verse 2] Just wear a hundred and thirty dollar turtleneck She'll probably be into that You even sold me on that doctor Laughing, looking pleasantly interested Anticipating accomplishment How does it feel to keep your love on retail? Lying to yourself every day, oh Questions of what it is you're worth Through a vacuum of neglected Exes and roses, intimacy this hollow You're sick of the shivering I thought you had everything [Chorus] And you may have the world under your covers But you're still so lonely, I can see it in your eyes When every pretty face is just another strange embrace At the end of the night And to think I was in love with an illusion I wonder who you're fooling this time around Incapable of feeling for another strange embrace [Bridge] You're picking her up Gaining her trust You're taking too much now It's never enough [Chorus] And you may have the world under your covers But you're still so lonely, I can see it in your eyes When every pretty face is just another strange embrace At the end of the night And to think I was in love with an illusion I wonder who you're fooling this time around Incapable of feeling for another strange embrace At the end of the night
