[spoken intro]

I know you didn’t mean it, ooh, you didn’t mean it

 

[verse]
I wake to your amber eyes clouding my vision

Clearing quickly, ‘cause I should know better now

I just wish you would want me without any conditions

I could be your tall, pretty boy somehow

 

[pre-chorus]
And I, I know you don’t mean it when you look at me like that

You didn’t want to be gearing for combat

When you fight the golden arrow stuck into my heart

Deep wounds, darling, yeah, it’s leaving a scar

And you could make your mark any moment now

But I'm still left watching your face at sundown

 

[chorus]
If we slow dance, does that mean you love me?

Feel our hands touch, sugar-sweet honey

Straying too close, the skies growing dusky

Cursing the sun, I wish I were lucky

And if you text back, does that mean you want me?

Hate how I feel for you, scratch my skin bloody

Need you like a heartbeat, sickening lonely

Something’s gone wrong, darling, Cupid has struck me

 

[verse]
Something about this, it keeps me up at night

I can’t be sure if this is a lie or not

Cause nothing’s okay with you, nothing’s quite right

Lay my feelings to death and just let them rot

 

[pre-chorus]
And I, I know you don’t mean it when you look at me like that

You didn’t want to be gearing for combat

When you fight the golden arrow stuck into my heart

Deep wounds, darling, yeah, it’s leaving a scar

And you could make your mark any moment now

But I’m still left watching your face at sundown

 

[chorus]
If we slow dance, does that mean you love me?

Feel our hands touch, sugar-sweet honey

Straying too close, the skies growing dusky

Cursing the sun, I wish I were lucky

And if you text back, does that mean you want me?

Hate how I feel for you, scratch my skin bloody

Need you like a heartbeat, sickening lonely

Something’s gone wrong, darling, Cupid has struck me

Something’s gone wrong, darling, Cupid has struck me
