Running With Scissors
Reckless Infatuation: Running With Scissors
Lyrics
We’ve done this once
We have experienced this situation before
Tried it twice
Tried it for a second time
Swore it off the third time
Promised to avoid it on the third attempt
But we go out
Despite our resolutions, we go out
And we make out
We engage in making out
Then we go back to your house
Then we return to your house
This is the kinda of thing that never ends well
This is the kind of situation that typically doesn't end well
But you’re just so exciting I can’t help myself
You are so thrilling that I can't resist
And all my friends will tell me that they told me so
My friends warned me, and they were right
Cause every time I let you hold me close
Every time I let you get close, the emotional pain intensifies
The cut gets deeper
The emotional wounds become deeper
Yeah we’re just making it worse
We are only making the situation worse
And then somebody gets hurt
Eventually, someone ends up getting hurt
We’re like running with scissors
We are like running with scissors, engaging in risky behavior
We’ve been mistakin’
We have been misunderstanding
Infatuation
It's infatuation, not genuine love
Acting like its love
Acting as if it's true love
Cause I love your edges
I appreciate your rough edges
And feeling reckless
Feeling carefree and impulsive
But it’s too dangerous
However, it's too dangerous to continue
This is the kinda of thing that never ends well
This kind of situation typically ends badly
But you’re/it’s just so exciting I can’t help myself
Despite the risk, it's too exciting to resist
And all my friends will tell me that they told me so
My friends warned me again, and they were right
Cause every time I let you hold me close
Every time I allow you to get close, the cycle repeats
I wake up in your sweatshirt
I wake up wearing your sweatshirt
It’s a pattern that we can’t break
It has become a repetitive pattern that we can't break
And you can’t ever kiss it better
You can't simply make the emotional pain disappear with kisses
How much pain can two hearts take?
How much emotional pain can two hearts endure?
When…
When...
