I said, I need a new life

I really have to go

Those words were so much sharper

Than I’d ever know

Strike a match

And hold it to your skin 

Just to feel something other

Than the pain your living with

Cause I play with scissors, honey 

You play with fire

Won’t be long until we fall out of line

Someone’s gonna get cut

Someone’s gonna burn

Our love is a place of no return

Hey now baby what’s it for 

And did it cost you much

The way we’re spendin' our love, sugar

Won’t ever be enough

Did you tell a lie about that broken wing

And why your little bird he will not sing

Stuck on the ground you’re earthbound

And now it’s down to you or me

And I play with scissors, honey

You play with fire

Won’t be long until we fall out of line

Someone’s gonna get cut

Someone’s gonna burn

Our love is a place of no return

Goodbye

Cause I play with scissors, honey 

You play with fire

Won’t be long until we fall out of line

Someone’s gonna get cut

Someone’s gonna burn

Our love is a place of no return

Goodbye
