Thumbtack

Somewhere in the village you're a star
Something’s feeling different
I’ll pretend I don’t remember
What it’s like when you’re around
Why I asked you to get out
Of California and you did

You're a thumbtack in my side
A dog bite
You distract
From what's worse so I will let you
Keep a ball chain on my leg
Keep fucking with my head
'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

Somewhere in the village at a bar
You lie about the business
To someone who won't remember
What it’s like when you’re around
Why I asked you to get out
Of my apartment
And you left

You're a thumbtack in my side
A dog bite
You distract
From what's worse so I will let you
Keep a ball chain on my leg
Keep fucking with my head
'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

"Laura" by Bat For Lashes played on the comedown
When you get drunk you get nice
So I will be your shadow
Take me to hell and then
Keep me out of your own mind

'Cause letting you in my head
Is easier than obsession
You're not even a good friend
But I'll let you act like that's the problem

A thumbtack in my side
A dog bite
You distract
From what's worse so I will let you
Keep a ball chain on my leg
Keep fucking with my head
'Cause it's not as bad as what I do to myself

Ah-ah
Ah-ah
