If you want everyone to love you You want to be seen Everything you govern Hides a secret being If you want someone to hate you Or covet your routine Every slip you cover Becomes more obscene There's a certain taste to lies It lingers on the tongue I can't quite figure why In all the songs I sung There's a little price to pay It weighs upon the mind It grows bigger every day That you can't leave it behind When you open up When you take it in You can't get close enough You can't feel the sin But it's alway there my love Right beside you love It's never ever enough But holds you like a kin If you want to feel the friction (Friction) Rub against your skin You pray the benediction For the battles you can't win When the war is finally over With diminishing returns You'll become a lover Cuz you can always learn There's a certain je ne sais quoi That hangs in the air When you obsess over every flaw But pretend to not care There's a little price you pay It weighs upon the soul It grows darker every day That you can't let it go When you open up When you take it in You can't get close enough You can't feel the sin But it's alway there my love Right beside you love It's never ever enough But holds you like a kin
