Saving some mystery for a gold-shackled bed
Love would last forever if we'd only stay interested
Commonlaw cousin kisses the Dutch uncle
And weak sister cries when she cracks his knuckle
She read my mind when she said
I'm lonely please come home
I'm lonely please come home
And I'll show you my true ways
Humor so sharp, quick and clever
Fingers a dark bruise for the pleasure
These off-hand remarks are so blunt and casual
Then we slide from the bed with claws and perfect lips
She read my mind when she said
I'm alone please come home
I'm alone please come home
I'll show you my true ways
I will show you my true ways
Throwing sympathy wrapped tight with malice
We're so damaged our kisses turn careless
The first cut isn't the deepest, it's only the first
She read my mind when she said
I'm alone please come home
I'm alone please come home
I'll show you my true ways
I will show you my true ways
