easy come easy go

The All-american Rejects

I cut you out, don t be so typical
Putting my tap shoes on like eggshells
when I dance around you
So work it out, why be so difficult?
I m pouring salt around the cemetery
Licking my wounds

Like it s too late to fight on
Spitting on the shoulder that you used to cry on
So dry your eyes
Don t make it cyclical
It goes around, goes around, goes around, yeah

You only love me when I m out of control
Easy come, easy go
You only love me when I m out on the road
Easy come, easy go

And if I found you down in the river below
Beneath the cliff s head, out in the shallows
The water so blue, that it was red as a rose
My pot of gold, you were the rainbow

I ll be the violet, you ll be the violence
Screaming your white noise, I sit in silence
So shut your mouth, why be so difficult?
It comes around, goes around, goes around, yeah

You only love me when I m out of control
Easy come, easy go
You only love me when I m out on the road
Easy come, easy go

And in the ashes of our love
there came a gift as from above
Can t believe my eyes, and look
into the skies and wonder why
Why d you let me go? Why d you leave me slow?
Why d you leave me out to dry myself?
Why do I look into the mirror and still see you?
Why does my face seem to turn black and blue?
With the bruises of our love
thrown away like a dove in the air
And all I have is all I am

You only love me when I m out of control
Easy come, easy go
You only love me when I m out on the road
Easy come, easy go
