I see symmetry in your face
I see parallels and I see shapes
I see symmetry in your face
My favourite cliche
I see sadness on your face
I’ll take it in and I will replace
All the trouble on your brain
My favourite cliche
My favourite cliche
I’ll fuck around and I’ll hurt myself
but you’re always there, damning me to hell
I see you wearing your heart on your sleeve
And, I won’t touch it I’ll stay right away
I see you wearing your heart on your sleeve
My favourite cliche
I see you looking at diamond rings
but you’re not into jewellery or fancy things
I see you buying a diamond ring
you’re still my favourite cliche
My favourite cliche
I’ll fuck around and I’ll hurt myself
but you’re always there, damning me to hell
I’ll fuck around and I’ll hurt myself
but you’re always there, damning me to hell
I’ll fuck around and I’ll hurt myself
but you’re always there with better stories to tell
And I’ll fuck around make a mess of things
when you say you’d like me to wear your ring
but that’s not my thing.
