Cheap Alternative
She was only a gateway drug
A cheap alternative to love
We knew what it was and that was all
Till she made me beg for more
She was always a prom night mess
The seams tore when i pulled at her dress
And it creased in the back when it hit the floor
And then she showed me out the door
We had a love you couldn't fake
Oh what a tragic mistake
We both made
How could we have known
And I'm still inside your home
But I've got nowhere else to go
And so it goes
How could we have known
Every date is a one night stand
I pull away when you hold my hand
And to me you're nothing but a chore
And I'm your someone to ignore
You've gotta know why I've stuck around
We caused a scene but we made no sound
When all i wanted was a guaranteed way to score
And a fantasy to explore
We had a love you couldn't fake
Oh what a tragic mistake
We both made
How could we have known
And I'm still inside your home
And I've got nowhere else to go
And so it goes
How could we have
She was only a gateway drug
A cheap alternative to love
We knew what it was and that was all
And how long did that last for
Till she made me beg for more
We had a love you couldn't fake
Oh what a tragic mistake
We both made
How could we have known
And I'm still inside your home
And I've got nowhere else to go
And so it goes
A cheap alternative to love
We knew what it was and that was all
Till she made me beg for more
She was always a prom night mess
The seams tore when i pulled at her dress
And it creased in the back when it hit the floor
And then she showed me out the door
We had a love you couldn't fake
Oh what a tragic mistake
We both made
How could we have known
And I'm still inside your home
But I've got nowhere else to go
And so it goes
How could we have known
Every date is a one night stand
I pull away when you hold my hand
And to me you're nothing but a chore
And I'm your someone to ignore
You've gotta know why I've stuck around
We caused a scene but we made no sound
When all i wanted was a guaranteed way to score
And a fantasy to explore
We had a love you couldn't fake
Oh what a tragic mistake
We both made
How could we have known
And I'm still inside your home
And I've got nowhere else to go
And so it goes
How could we have
She was only a gateway drug
A cheap alternative to love
We knew what it was and that was all
And how long did that last for
Till she made me beg for more
We had a love you couldn't fake
Oh what a tragic mistake
We both made
How could we have known
And I'm still inside your home
And I've got nowhere else to go
And so it goes
