Vivid as a plain wax spilled out on the tarmac I could feel my legs begin to quake Oh, I love to wear disguises, but I hate this masquerade Baby, you're me, although we're thick as thieves The only time I love you is when you're real Rooted teeth and deep stares strung out in the spring air I'll just hang my head on out to dry Oh, I could fake forever, but it's just not worth the time Finger snaps and hand claps leapfrog all the deep cracks A contradiction falling to the ground I'm a misery without you, it's just like you're still around Baby, you're me, although we're thick as thieves The only time I love you is when you're real Timid as a tape deck spilling off the same shirt My attention span left long ago But there's comfort in the knowledge that I'll probably die alone Baby, you're me, although we're thick as thieves The only time I love you is when you're real Oh, baby, you're me, as funny as it seems The only time I love you is when you're real The only time I love you is when you're real Thanks for watching!
