The Bomb

You said this could have been the best thing
That ever happened to you, so you decided not to do it
Now you come back every summer like a carnivorous flower
And I stare at your hands in the heat, and I
Think they are the most beautiful thing I've ever seen

But if I was free to love you
You wouldn't want me, would you?
Unavailability is the only thing that turns you on
Come here, baby, tell me that I'm wrong

I've blown apart my life for you
And bodies hit the floor for you
And break me, shake me, devastate mе
Come here, baby, tell me that I'm wrong

I don't love you, I just love the bomb
Buildings falling is the only thing that turns me on

I've blown apart my life for you
And bodies hit the floor for you
And break me, shake me, devastate mе
Come here, baby, tell me that I'm wrong

I don't love you, I just love the bomb (oh-oh-oh)
I let it burn, but it just had to be done (oh-oh-oh)
And I'm in ruins, but is it what I wanted all along?
Sometimes you get the girl, sometimes you get a song
