Everything's Gotta Go Bad Lyrics

In time you’ll forget
how you say to me
you say
“this house is ours”
“you are the one”
“I’m so in love”
you say...

I’m what you want
straight from the sun
help you to grow
then I’ll take what you’ve won

said that we think the same
happy exchange
said you would never be too tired to play
so what changed?
what got in the way?
you have rules that you’ve made
you don’t lead with them that’s your one mistake

for you my love is the same
resting in bleach like a stain
“be someone else for a change”
eventually that’s what you’ll say

there’s no more surprise it’s a shame
feeling too old for my age
"be someone else for a change"
time for the good to go strange

dine on your words
until it hurts
spill at the seams
and make everything worse

all of that certainty
beginning to sway
suddenly everything’s gotta go bad in this way
I give in, you shift shape
but a woman’s sacred
guess I’m no more immune than all the rest

for you my love is the same
resting in bleach like a stain
“be someone else for a change”
eventually that’s what you’ll say

there’s no more surprise it’s a shame
feeling too old for my age
“be someone else for a change”
time for the good to go strange
