Watching yourself
Standing at the crossroads
Look over your shoulder
While the other guy reloads
It seems only human to want out
Weighing all the options
When you just wanna scream
But you freak into a calm
'Cause you gotta pick a team
And you play their way until
You get to shout
All the perfect girls of pop
They bat their eyelashes a lot
And sing sweetly
They sing sweetly
Like they never been hurt before
Like they never had their heart
Slammed in a door
They sing sweetly
They sing sweetly
Winning and losing
And everything between
And spinning in circles
Like a big machine
And working up a
Quiet inner rage
'Til a rhythm and a beat
Come in your head
And it goes right under
Something you said
And you wake up wondering
If you are okay
All the perfect girls of pop
They bat their eyelashes a lot
And sing sweetly
They sing sweetly
Like they never been hurt before
Like they never had
Their heart slammed in a door
They sang
Sweetly
They sing
Sweetly
Safe and cold's
A mighty resonator
Just because
I think about her
Don't mean I hate her
I don't believe her fire
Keeps you warm
If you think too much
It's the land of indecision
If you don't think enough
It's the imprecision
I guess
I just don't understand
The form
All the perfect girls of pop
They bat their eyelashes a lot
And sing
Sweetly
They sing
Sweetly
They sang
Sweetly
They sing
Sweetly
