lyrics

How damn beautiful was our descent from love?
Porcelain's got a funny way of shimmering when it falls
Now I'm a broken man, I'm so confused
Cause every thought I think of is still a thought of you

From the 5 and dime where we first met
to the pink dress you wore when we first kissed
to the twist in our sheets when you can't sleep
to the tears that stream down your cheeks

I don't wanna be in love
so I'll forget the salted cherry taste of your lips and
I don't wanna be in love
so I'll forget your face and replace it hit rewind to the first time we met and erase it.
I don't wanna be in love

How I longed to hold you in my arms
every morning you snooze the alarm
but I wake up early just to breath in what you exhale
Now I got this new love, she's a stranger
we play dress up for the sake of some fake love, she's my barbie and I'm her Ken doll
But its all pretend, Can't get your last words out of my head, you said,
you're a selfish piece of shit, don't you know that?

I don't wanna be in love
so I'll forget the salted cherry taste of your lips and
I don't wanna be in love
so I'll forget your face and replace it hit rewind to the first time we met and erase it.
I don't wanna be in love

You're a selfish piece of shit don't ya know that?
You're a selfish piece of shit don't ya know that?
You're a selfish, I'm so selfish
I'm a selfish piece of shit, I know that
I don't wanna be in love.
