Lace Curtains - Bedroom Honesty lyrics

rate me

Teeth mark bruise on your arm

That’s what he gave you

No chocolates in a heart

Just the same old screw

When you take off your clothes

And realize you have no more secrets

I hope it's a surprise, that this is

As intimate as it gets

[Chorus]

I’m trying to sleep, why don’t you

Leave me alone?

You can call me a creep if you want to

We can smell our own

You think anything that you tell me

I didn't already know, oh

Just a version of bedroom honesty,

I've heard it before

You have an image of him sleeping

I can see that being sad

Give a mouth full of pennies to remind him

Of what he once had

Complaining you turn all the women you know

Into one

Remember all the mean things that they said

Or done

[Chorus]

I’m trying to sleep, why don’t you

Leave me alone?

You can call me a creep if you want to

We can smell our own

You think anything that you tell me

I didn't already know, oh

Just a version of bedroom honesty,

I heard it before

You’ll be with your one true love

And you’ll realize it’s not a dream

But it won’t be enough

And you’ll wonder what’s left unseen

You hate yourself and you treat them bad

Until you finally leave

So prepare for a lifetime of pretending

to search for a thing that you

Already had,

A person you could fall in love with

If they weren't already in your bed

[Chorus]
