lyrics

You're a chameleon
So perfect at blending in
With whoever, with whoever you're sleeping with
Like a body snatcher, inheriting all his traits
Never dig through to find out which ones you love and which ones you hate

Go on and glob on to her and hope to god that she's interesting
And when she's not you'll just have to face facts that you never changed anything
And you'll feed yourself fake love cause you never got the real thing
Yeah you'll feed yourself fake love cause you never got the real thing

And as these words fall from my tongue
I hope they'll read as your last cadence
Because you never learned the difference
Between life and a life sentence
You'll just skate by on his knowledge now
And tell yourself you've got it figured out
But that is one lie you've never been able to dance around

Go on and glob on to him and hope to god that he's interesting
And when he's not you'll just have to face facts that you never changed anything
And you'll feed yourself fake love cause you never got the real thing
Yeah you'll feed yourself fake love cause you never got the real thing
