Swimming like a dolphin
But I feel like a shark
I sleep with one eye open
And I'm always on guard
It's been a long time
Since I met somebody new
You never know how cold the ocean is
Until you're soaked through
I don't know you at all
So I'm starting from the top
Reading every page
Still predict the epilogue
Every great war had a couple sunny days
I'm manning my post
Drawing hearts around your name
Oh it's sticky like a mouse trap
Sticky like the rain
Sticky like the candy on the wrapper in your hand
Sticky like I want you
But you make me feel insane
Sticky like I want you
But it always ends the same
I always wanna talk
You're always in my brain
It's been two years
Since I felt this kind of rage
I thought I was titanium
With poison in my veins
I thought I'd never blush again
Now I'm blushing every day
You're everything I swore off
You're the thing I love to hate
Every love you had before me
Has lamented just the same
It only takes a spark
To set fire to the hills
I just rebuilt my house
And now it's kerosene filled
Oh it's sticky like a mouse trap
Sticky like the rain
Sticky like candy on the wrapper in your hand
Sticky like I want you
But you make me feel insane
Sticky like I want you
But it always ends the same
Mmmm
Oh as I lay us down to rest
Before I've ever kissed your chest
I'd love you forever
But I know what to expect
Lovers like me burn bright, burn fast
I hope you take a picture
And lay it in the ash
I'd love you forever
But forever never lasts
So I'll leave you without warning
So you'll always want me back
Yeah it's sticky like a mouse trap
Sticky like the rain
Sticky like candy on the wrapper in your hand
Sticky like I want you
But you make me feel insane
Sticky like I want you
But it always ends the same
Oh oh oh
It always ends the same
