Selfless, Cold and Composed
I said what you wanted to hear and what I wanted to say
So I will take it back
And all the dishes intact, let them be broken
Broken
It's easy to be easy and free
When it doesn't mean anything
You remain selfless, cold and composed
You've done me no favor to call and be nice
Telling me I can take anything I like
You don't owe me to be so polite
You've done no wrong and you've done no wrong
Get out of my sight
It's easy to be easy and free
When it doesn't mean anything
To remain selfless, cold and composed
Come on, baby, now throw me a right to the chin
Don't just stare like you never cared, I know you did
But you just smile like a bank teller
Blankly telling me, "Have a nice life"
Come on, baby, now throw me a right to the chin
Just one sign that would show me that you give a shit
But you just smile politely and I grow weaker
And I said what you wanted to hear and what I wanted to say
So I will take it back
It's easy to be easy and free
When it doesn't mean anything
When it doesn't mean anything
You can take anything
You can take anything
You're so selfless, cold
You're so selfless, cold
You're so selfless, cold and composed
So I will take it back
And all the dishes intact, let them be broken
Broken
It's easy to be easy and free
When it doesn't mean anything
You remain selfless, cold and composed
You've done me no favor to call and be nice
Telling me I can take anything I like
You don't owe me to be so polite
You've done no wrong and you've done no wrong
Get out of my sight
It's easy to be easy and free
When it doesn't mean anything
To remain selfless, cold and composed
Come on, baby, now throw me a right to the chin
Don't just stare like you never cared, I know you did
But you just smile like a bank teller
Blankly telling me, "Have a nice life"
Come on, baby, now throw me a right to the chin
Just one sign that would show me that you give a shit
But you just smile politely and I grow weaker
And I said what you wanted to hear and what I wanted to say
So I will take it back
It's easy to be easy and free
When it doesn't mean anything
When it doesn't mean anything
You can take anything
You can take anything
You're so selfless, cold
You're so selfless, cold
You're so selfless, cold and composed
