I was never sick
You were never right
It was just a cold and awful night
Whisper in the window
Swinging on the door
You are not the man I took you for
I was never honest
You could never lie
You hollow out my dreams
My neck, you bite
Banging on my eardrums
Chewing off my jaw
You are not the man I took you for

Hit me with a lick
Baby, have you got a light?
I never had you down as the smoking type
Feel it in my lungs
Hold on, babe, you've got me stung
I was only looking for some fun
Splattered on the windows
Fresh paint on the walls
Writing down my number as the man to call
I was never honest
You could only lie
I was only hoping for one night

I was never on it
But you would hold me tight
You're borrowing my dreams
My life, you light
Dancing on my eardrums
Lift me off the floor
You are not the man I took you for
Slipping into darkness
Kisses spark the light
I always thought I'd be the hiding type
Lips undress my mouth
Jacket hung up on the door
You are not the man I took you for
