Lyrics

0:00Hold my head a little higher
0:02Can\'t you tell I love a liar?
0:03I know what I look like to you
0:07I would say it\'s excessive
0:09Or maybe damn impressive
0:11I\'ll admit, I\'m confused
0:15I\'ve gotta remember
0:16That I\'m just a toy
0:18\'Though you got my hopes up
0:20And now I\'m annoyed
0:22You thought you could charm me
0:24And, damn it, you\'re right
0:26So watch me fall for every damn stereotype
0:30You can\'t help it
0:32This is just how we were taught to love
0:34Oh, there\'s a name for boys like you
0:37And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines
0:41I hate that they shake me up every time
0:46Mmm-mmm-mmm
0:53Hold my hand for just a second
0:54See you soon, what do we reckon?
0:56Maybe I\'m not just a friend
1:00But we\'re so close, I thought we\'d kiss
1:02Turns out you\'re just good at this
1:03But how \'bout you do it again?
1:07Oh no, I gotta remember
1:09That I\'m just a toy
1:11\'Though you got my hopes up
1:14And now I\'m annoyed
1:15You thought you could charm me
1:17And, damn it, you\'re right
1:19So watch me fall for every damn stereotype
1:23You can\'t help it
1:25This is just how we were taught to love
1:30Oh, there\'s a name for boys like you
1:34And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines
1:38I hate that they shake me up every time
1:39Guess I\'ll take it
1:40This is just how we were taught to love
1:46Oh, there\'s a name for boys like you
1:49And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines
1:51I hate that they shake me up every time
1:53Mmm-mmm-mmm-ah
1:58They tell me, \"Don\'t go there
2:00We know you love a nightmare
2:01There\'s more than a crush here
2:03Why aim to be crushed here?\"
2:04They tell me, \"Don\'t go there
