lyrics

I'm in love with a world
Filled with plastic white pearls of your life
I'm inspired to be
By the pictures I see of your dress

I'm a bitch, I'm a saint
And I'm looking up baby names
Dot com, it's so fun
Pretending to be someone else

I'm a teenage melancholic
Who's just seen a 2000s sad flick
About people in love
But I've never felt love like they did
And god knows that I'm starving for it

Please take me for a ride
Through photographs and riversides
You're covered in snow
But I wouldn't know where you've been

On the way there's a frozen lake
Where she took you on your first date
Her ex-lover's dead, but you're now more alive
Than I ever was

The last time I saw her, she said you had changed
Did she break something that you
Could never replace?
I wish, I'd known you back then
Maybe we'd have been friends

On the polaroids I see
The things you did, god I wish it were me
I know that they're bitter
And when you remember, you bleed

Please take me for a ride
Through photographs and riversides
You're covered in snow
But I wouldn't know where you've been

Please take me for a ride
Through photographs and riversides
Please take me for a ride
Through photographs and riversides
