Dead Language
You say you're an open book babe
I say you're written in a cold dead language
You say that you're the type to stick around
But I'm easy to break like a forgotten habit
I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
Now I'm a crumbled up ticket in your back pocket
Just the opening act to your show
And we never made sense
I'm not one of your poems
I don't even sit in the rhythm of your life
I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
I guess you wanted me to change
I'm just a puzzle piece that gets discarded away
And I don't even recognise myself
I smoothed down all my edges
Just to fit on your shelf
I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
It's open and shut now
You turned into someone I only occasionally knew
We're open and shut now
I guess you'll be finding someone else soon
But I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
I say you're written in a cold dead language
You say that you're the type to stick around
But I'm easy to break like a forgotten habit
I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
Now I'm a crumbled up ticket in your back pocket
Just the opening act to your show
And we never made sense
I'm not one of your poems
I don't even sit in the rhythm of your life
I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
I guess you wanted me to change
I'm just a puzzle piece that gets discarded away
And I don't even recognise myself
I smoothed down all my edges
Just to fit on your shelf
I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
It's open and shut now
You turned into someone I only occasionally knew
We're open and shut now
I guess you'll be finding someone else soon
But I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend
