She says, he’s going straight to nowhere
He should buy a ticket home
She’s a straight line on a sharp bend
And he’s an ending on a road
He’s got no time to be a front man
Tie his shoes, wear his clothes
She will try to twist his fingers
He will try to break her bones
He’s doctor and he says he’s certified
Oh, she knows that that is wrong, when she just looks into his eyes
He’ll mend her heartbreak, and she says that he has the cure
But that medicine don’t kick in like it used to anymore
But god loves trier, and the devil loves a sin
Well, I guess he’ll be a liar, and she’ll take it on the chin
He’s left alone, and he doesn’t know
She’s in control
And he sees her ghost every time he looks into her eyes
And what he knows is wrong is what she’ll say is right
He knows she means it
When she says “I love you back”
Oh, she knows just how to tease him
Keep him happy, it’s an act
And in the arms of all mistakes
Comes collision of a word
From the fragile sense of sorry
To the promise he misheard
But God loves trier, and the devil loves a sin
Well, I guess he’ll be a liar, and she’ll take it on the chin
He’s left alone, and he doesn’t know
She’s in control
And he sees her ghost every time he looks into her eyes
And what he knows is wrong is what she’ll say is right

But God loves trier, and the devil loves a sin
Well, I guess I’ll be a liar, and I’ll take it on the chin
He’s left alone, and he doesn’t know
She’s in control
And he sees her ghost every time he looks into her eyes
And what he knows is wrong is what she’ll say is right
And he sees a ghost, every time he looks into her eyes
And what he knows is wrong is what she’ll say is right.
