Natalie (Single Version)

He wore a new band tee
Every day of the week
Black eyes to match his ripped skinny jeans
And I caught him staring
Every time that I walked by
Had me feeling kinda shy
But I think I made him weak at the knees

So we drove his car downtown
Every day on his break
Leave it to me to get his hair in a state
Eyes shut tight and
Steaming up the window
Acting like we didn't know that there were
One too many hearts at stake

But he made it so easy
To justify
The lie that I'd hide behind

So, you're the bad guy, ooh
'Cause it takes the weight off of my mind
Caught up in the secrecy
I do what works for me
Make you the enemy
Natalie

With a silver tongue he fed me his facts
That his benevolence was what had him trapped
(I'm just so empathetic)
'Cause you were
Sevens sins wrapped up in one
Violent as a loaded gun
A warzone in a one-bedroom flat

Yeah he made it so easy
To justify
The lie that I'd hide behind

So, you're the bad guy, ooh
'Cause it takes the weight off of my mind
Caught up in the secrecy
I do what works for me
Make you the enemy
Natalie

It's clearer now in retrospect, I don't know what I expected
He was never mine to have
(Natalie)
Dared to let my vision blur, anything to feel connected
Thought I knew better than that
(Natalie)

It's clearer now in retrospect, I don't know what I expected
He was never mine to have
(Natalie)
Dared to let my vision blur, anything to feel connected
Thought I knew better than that

But he made it so easy
To justify
The lie that I'd hide behind

Made you the bad guy, ooh
'Cause it took the weight off of my mind
Caught up in the secrecy
I do what works for me
Make you the enemy

So, you're the bad guy, ooh
'Cause it takes the weight off of my mind
Caught up in the secrecy
I do what works for me
Make you the enemy

Did what worked for me
Made you the enemy
