Pin Lyrics

Dirt on your fingernails, blood on your knees
But did that ever make you happy?
I think you were my best friend, gentle, do not apprehend
I know it hasn't been a dream, but if you pardon, I will mend

Drunk in a parking lot, just after 3
Tearin' at your hair like a banshee
Lighter and a safety pin, light the end, burn to skin
I'll stick to you forever, cause this guy, I think, is permanent

Ooh-ooh
Falling off the edge with you, ooh-ooh
It was too good to be true
Good to be true

Bite off your fingernails, cut off your skin
Tell me that it didn't happen
Run through the dark woods, fall and hit his t-shirt
I was only looking for a human to reciprocate

Fade into black hole, I need it to breathe
But does it really make you happy?
Kiss me with a big knife, fighting hard off paradise
Led him like a soldier, beats in line, must be nice

Ooh-ooh
Falling off the edge with you, ooh-ooh
It was too good to be true
Too good to be true

Thought I had all I thought I wanted to
I fix him myself, falling way off course
And I can see your affection when I look in mine
And I say, "bless you" (say "bless you")
Baby, for the way you-

Falling off the edge with you, ahh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It was too good to be true
Ooh, falling off the edge with you
It was too good to be true
Too good to be true

I feel like I remember there being an earlier version of the lvrics on here that were far more correct. I tried editing them back but doesn't seem like it will get posted, oh well I tried...anyway:

Dirt on your fingernails, blood on your knees But did that ever make you happy? I think you were my best friend, gentle, do not reprehend I know it hasn't been a dream, but if you pardon, I will mend

Drunk in a parking lot, just after 3 Tearin' at your hair like a banshee Lighter and a safety pin, light the end, burn the skin I'll stick to you forever cause the scar, I think, is permanent

Ooh-ooh Falling off the edge with you, ooh-ooh It was too good to be true Too Good to be true

Bite off your fingernails, cut off your skin Tell me that it didn't happen Run through the dark woods, fall and couldn't see straight I was only looking for a human to reciprocate

Fade into black hole, I need it to breathe But does it really make you happy? Kiss me with a big knife, fighting hard off paradise Led him like a soldier, peace of mind, must be nice

Ooh-ooh Falling off the edge with you, ooh-ooh It was too good to be true Too good to be true

Thought I had what I thought I wanted I lost I'm fixing my thoughts, falling way off course And I can see your affection when I look in mine And I say, "bless you" (say "bless you") Baby, don't go away

Falling off the edge with you, ahh-ooh-ooh-ooh It was too good to be true Ooh, falling off the edge with you It was too good to be true Too good to be true
