Strangers

In your basement, I grow cold

Thinking back to what I was always told

"Don't talk to strangers or you might fall in love"

Freezer bride, your sweet divine

You devour like smoked bovine hide

How funny, I never considered myself tough

You're so handsome, walking over to me now

I tried to be good, am I no good?

Am I no good? Am I no good?

With my memory restricted to a polaroid in evidence

I just wanted to be yours, can I be yours?

Can I be yours? Just tell me I'm yours

If I'm turning in your stomach and I'm making you feel sick

Oh, no-oh, no-oh, no-oh-oh-oh-oh

No-oh, no-oh-oh-oh-oh

No-oh, no-oh-oh

When my mother sees me on the side

Of a milk carton in Winn-Dixie's dairy aisle

She'll cry and wait up for me

We'll make love in your attic all night

Euphoric in some strange delight

I'm happier here 'cause he told me I should be

Ah, you're so handsome when I'm all over your mouth

(When I'm all over your mouth, when I'm all over your mouth)

I tried to be good, am I no good?

Am I no good? Am I no good?

With my memory restricted to a polaroid in evidence

I just wanted to be yours, can I be yours?

Can I be yours? Just tell me I'm yours

If I'm turning in your stomach and I'm making you feel sick (sick)

Am I making you feel sick? (ah, ah-ah-ah)

Am I making you feel sick?

Am I making you feel, am I making you feel sick?

Am I making you feel, am I making you feel sick?

Am I making you feel sick?

Am I making you feel sick?

Am I making you feel sick? No, oh, oh-oh

♪

Found you just to tell you that I made it real far

And that I never blamed you for loving me the way that you did

While you were torn apart

I would still wait with you there

Don't think about it too hard or you'll never sleep a wink at night again

Don't worry 'bout me and these green eyes

Mama, just know that I love you (I do)

And I'll see you when you get here
