Exit

Intro

(low synth drone, lighter flick, distant traffic)

Mm...

They all come in thinkin' they the one to make me stay

Funny how they memorize the exit anyway

Oh, yeah

Verse 1

I don't learn your name, I learn the lie that gets you close

The story 'bout your father, then I give you what you chose

You think you readin' me, but baby, I wrote the part

I been studyin' the soft spot since before we even start

You cry so pretty in the passenger seat, I let it run

I keep a little graveyard full of girls who thought they won

Forget you by the sunrise, that's the gentlest thing I do

I don't break the heart, I borrow it and never bring it through

Pre-Chorus

And you knew, you knew, what I was when you let me in

You smelled it on the leather, still you wanted me to win

So don't act surprised, baby, the snake don't change its skin

You just liked the way I bite

Chorus

I'm cold blooded, I been frozen since the day you found me

Pretty little reasons all the same when they surround me

You can love me till it kills you, I won't feel a single thing

I'm a beautiful religion that don't answer when you pray

You came to get saved and I just taught you how to fall

I'm the best mistake you'll memorize and never call

So cry it in designer, let it ruin all your nights

I only feel alive when I'm the reason you're not right

Verse 2

You wanted to fix a man who profits off the wreck

I learned your favorite song just so it'd hurt when it sets

Replaced you in a weekend, didn't even change the sheets

She got your perfume on now, funny how the city repeats

I'm not heartless, I just sold it for the life that I prefer

And every girl who saved me is a lesson I never learned

You all blur together like the lights on the strip

Interchangeable angels with the same tremblin' lip

I'll be the one you warn your daughter not to chase

But you'll text me when it's lonely, 'cause I left a empty space

Bridge

(stripped, just synth and breath)

There's a line of them outside and not a face that I keep

I could end it all tomorrow, sleep just as deep

You thought your kind of love would be the thing to make me bleed

But you're just another candle that I'm watchin' till it leaves

Chorus

I'm cold blooded, I been frozen since the day you found me

Pretty little reasons all the same when they surround me

You can love me till it kills you, I won't feel a single thing

I'm a beautiful religion that don't answer when you pray

You came to get saved and I just taught you how to fall

I'm the best mistake you'll memorize and never call

So cry it in designer, let it ruin all your nights

I only feel alive when I'm the reason you're not right

Outro

(synth decays, lighter flicks again)

Mm...

Don't wait by the window

There was never a version of me that was yours

Goodnight, angel
