The Strangers Lyrics

Lyric discussion by letmegohome 

Cover art for The Strangers lyrics by St. Vincent

Lover, I don't play to win, Befall the thrill until I'm spent

Paint the black hole blacker Paint the black hole blacker

I threw flowers in your face On my sisters wedding day

Paint the black hole blacker Paint the black hole blacker

You showed up with a black eye Looking to go start a fight

Paint the black hole blacker Paint the black hole blacker

Playboys under the mattress Like I wouldn't notice

Paint the black hole blacker Paint the black hole blacker

What do I share What do I keep From all the strangers who sleep where I sleep

Desperate don't look good on you Neither does your virtue

Paint the black hole blacker Paint the black hole blacker

Good souls have won better sons, Better souls grow worse ones (?)

What do I share What do I keep From all the strangers who sleep where I sleep

You showed up with a black eye Looking to finish a fight

Lover, I don't play to win Befall the thrill until I'm spent

Paint the black hole blacker Paint the black hole blacker
