Melanie Martinez ~ Race ~ Lyrics

Intro~

Verse 1~

Sweet sweet hold
You have over me
Caught me with your eyes
And your lips like sweet honey

Too bad I'll never know how sweet
The honey tastes
Cause the average girl
Simply won that race

That race you kept on giving me
Left me hanging, wanting more
When you broke free

Bet she's sweet
But not as sweet as I could've been
Girls like her come and go
Like the boring wind

Chorus~

But I'm the type that stays
Your heart and my heart
In many different ways

I call you making sure that
You're alright
In the day or in the middle of the night

Sorry if that isn't good enough
Confusion has become a little rough

And I'll be on you like the clothes you wear
And run my fingers through your curled gel hair
But for now I'll let the race be won by the girl without a boy at home

Hands so purple
From the knuckle aches
It's cause they create
Fragile hearts to break

But a player soon will see
That his karma goes bad
When the girl that he wants
Stabs him in the back

Chorus~

But I'm the type that stays
Your heart and my heart
In many different ways

I call you making sure that
You're alright
In the day or in the middle of the night

Sorry if that isn't good enough
Confusion had become a little rough

And I'll be on you like the clothes you wear
And run my fingers through your curled gel hair
But for now I'll let the race be won by the girl without a boy at home
