I met a new one and she looks just like you
She gives me everything that you didn’t want to
And maybe I don’t need saving after all
She sticks in my ribs almost better than you did
And maybe I’m tired or maybe she glows

I wonder if you’re still defending
I wonder if you’re still defending

Met someone with your eyes and skin
I can convince her of everything
And baby, it’s so delicious you should
Come here and see for yourself
“I’m gone”, you said, “if this is all there is:
You’ll never shine alone

And I wonder if you’re still defending
I wonder if you’re still defending

You’ve been so wrong
For so long now

(I can fall alone if all
if I can fall away)

I’ve kissed others lips
And they promised me healing
It’s easy if you try
