Für Elise (Penthouse Suites)

I blame myself
For how this went
'Cause I like men with lots of money
And I'm easily impressed

Like you can tell
And we just met
So the Rose bar took your money
And you took me back to your bed

And that night I played you Für Elise
And fell asleep in your penthouse suite
The charm wore off, hey
'Cause nobody really wants to see
Their heroes bleed when they believed
He is a God

So, please leave me in my fantasies
You will never be the one I want
Please go and leave me tenderly
And don't forget to be everything I'm not

You're fake as hell
But so am I
I guess I'm trying to write a story
Maybe build a brand-new life

Here with the king
Of the social scene, oh
And I'm the girl here on your arm
Who smiles along but wants to leave

'Cause you know that I hate Für Elise
Some think it's cheap but you're like please
So I played along, yeah
See, that's the thing men do to me
They go skin deep then play for keeps
When I'm already gone

So, please leave me in my fantasies
You will never be the one I want
Please go and leave me tenderly
And don't forget to be everything I'm not

Mom says I have high standards
I watch them all shatter
With all my fake laughter

The men I love are disasters
My dreams end up shattered
I hate them all after

So, please leave me in my fantasies
There's someone for me
And I made him all up

Please leave me in my fantasies
He thinks talk is cheap
And doesn't talk too much

Please leave me in my fantasies
You know Für Elise was just a dream
Before it was written down

Please leave me in my fantasies
I got songs to write about a man right now
Please leave me in my fantasies
Don't bother me if he don't exist

Please leave me in my fantasies
'Cause I would rather die alone than not be with him
