lyrics

I’m grasping at straws with you don’t know who I am
I wake up at 4 PM with you in my hands
And if you get restless I’ve a ploy on demand
You seem like you’re keen, but you don’t love me again
All that you leave me is strange loss and a feeling like I’m

I’m grasping at straws with you don’t know where I stand
I’ll ask my ex-boyfriend and he’ll give me a hand
You know it’s bad news, if he’s in the mix,
‘Cause he never liked you, he thought you were the pits
All that you give me is strange loss and a feeling like I’m

I wish that I could say you lied to me
‘Cause then it wouldn’t be my fault
Grasping at straws just to parse what you mean
You leave me clues, then you depart

I’ll open my eyes, this time I’ll open my eyes
Stop being so blind so I can see your disguise
You come as a friend, you bear a white flag
But you will consume me, from the start to the end
All that you leave me is strange loss and a feeling like I’m
Grasping at straws, with you I’m grasping at straws
Why don’t you bite down, my love, I’m trapped in your jaws
I’d rather to break, than be torn apart
The tearing, of course, is what you do to my heart
All that you leave me is strange loss and a feeling like I’m
Grasping at straws, I am so lost for you
Perceiving omens from above
I let you touch me in our younger days
But that’s just not what I call love
