Took a long look in those overwhelming eyes of yours
Like a cheap book on those long trains that only take you halfway back
They read real well but who can tell what the matter is?
But what's even sadder is, if I told you true, I'd have to lie to you and you'd lie right back
We'd give each other a heart attack
I shouldn't look long in those overloaded eyes of yours
I get the book wrong in those dreamy moods when I think you're too good looking
Don't you expect me to pay the check and all the damages
When what you will ravage is my old trainwreck soul
For the heart you stole: I would steal it back
But then you'd just give me a heart attack
I'm gonna ride that train, you wanna bomb my brain like a terrorist
With a really pretty fist you will yank that chain but the train won't stop
It would wreck the plot
And it read so well it's quick as hell with a dramatic end
So don't say THAT again, 'cuz it ain't the truth
And the truth is coming a broken track
And you can't do nothing to turn it back
I'm gonna lie to you, you're gonna lie right back
A trainwreck beats a heart attack
