Pitted Lyrics by The Fontaines

Playgirls

0

Hopes are rising ’til they fall back down
It’s like they breathe
I thought you wanted me, I was wrong
You don’t know who you need
Touch me, you take me by surprise
‘cause you’re so hard to read
We keep talking ’til our throats run dry
You’re a troubled man
I was hoping you would stay the night
But you can’t
Told me all your dirty worth
Never wanted more from me
Than to show me, show me where you hurt
‘cause you knew I’d believe
Gotta lose your temper
’til you can’t remember
Anything you’re telling me
We were never lovers
Underneath the covers
But you’re still looking to leave
When I could be who you need
I heard you singing in your room alone
A song you wish you wrote
You’re always saying that you’re on your own
So I’ll go
Shy little drummer
He’s a little tougher
Than he’d really like to be
Needs another mother
I found him in the gutter
Too afraid of who he needs
Crying on my shoulder
Move a little closer
You aren’t who you wanna be
I got a look at you for free
I got a look at you for free
I’ll be who you really need
