Bright and Early

Selling Yourself Short
So what makes him so different than the rest?Your love won't lastWhen you want something that you can't haveYou wake up for work and he rolls overFalls back asleep until he's soberYou're always a makerHe's always a takerMid-afternoon, your lunch break's overBack to the grind, but he's on the sofaAt home watching cableGetting high with the neighborsWhen in the world will you open your eyes upAnd see it's already over?When in the world can you open your mindAnd believe he's fucking you over?So what makes him so different than the rest?Your love won't lastWhen you want something that you can't have?You're always aloneThe fire's grown colderYou deal with his shit and it's getting olderYou think that he's faithfulBut he's getting playfulSongtexteYou think you're in loveYou say it's rightBut you cry to yourself while it all comes undoneThere's no solid ground when you're swimming in doubtsYou ought to know better by nowWhen in the world will you open your eyes upAnd see it's already over?When in the world can you open your mindAnd believe he's fucking you over?So what makes him so different than the rest?Your love won't lastWhen you want something that you can't have?When in the world will you open your eyes upAnd see it's already over?When in the world will you open your mindAnd believe he's fucking around?So what makes him so different than the rest?Your love won't lastWhen you want something that you can't have?
