Margarine Love

We were something in between
Some kind of spectacle
Like none you've ever seen
But I swear to whatever's out there
I'll never be deceived
Because you took my loving heart and laid it down

You lead a reckless kind of life
Leave in the morning, don't know where you'll be by night
But it's done, the setting sun
Is nowhere in the sky
Cause you took my loving heart and laid it down

We had margarine love, artificial, but
You could still spread us on toast
It was a hell of a night when we took that bite
And I still taste your ghost
And if it tastes like butter, but a little bit better then
I don't even care it's false
Cause we had margarine love
But it was marginally better than most

I learned the hard way not to trust
That how the picture looked
Was never what it was
But what's sad is I'd go back to
Buying all your bluff
Cause you took my loving heart and laid it down
Down, down, down

We had margarine love, artificial, but
You could still spread us on toast
It was a hell of a night when we took that bite
And I still taste your ghost
If it tastes like butter, but a little bit better then
I don't even care it's false
Cause we had margarine love
But it was marginally better than most

And if you came around again and looked me in the eye
I might believe, you might deceive me into every little lie
Because you taste so good on the tip of my tongue
Oh goddamn, what have I become

We had margarine love, artificial, but
You could still spread us on toast
It was a hell of a night when we took that bite
And I still taste your ghost
If it tastes like butter, but a little bit better then
I don't even care it's false
Cause we had margarine love
But it was marginally better than most
Yeah

Tastes like butter, but a little bit better
I don't even care it's false
Cause we had margarine love
But it was marginally better than most
