See you in the dark

All eyes on you, my magician

All eyes on us

You make everyone disappear, and

Cut me into pieces

Gold cage, hostage to my feelings

Back against the wall

Trippin', trip-trippin' when you're gone

'Cause we break down a little

But when you get me alone, it's so simple

'Cause, baby, I know what you know

We can feel it

And all our pieces fall

Right into place

Getting caught up in a moment

Lipstick on your face

So it goes

I'm yours to keep

And I'm yours to lose

You know I'm not a bad girl, but I

Do bad things with you

So it goes

Met you in a bar

All eyes on me, your illusionist

All eyes on us

I make all your gray days clear, and

Wear you like a necklace

I'm so chill, but you make me jealous

But I got your heart

Skippin', skip-skippin' when I'm gone

'Cause we break down a little

But when I get you alone, it's so simple

'Cause, baby, I know what you know

We can feel it

And all our pieces fall

Right into place

Getting caught up in a moment

Lipstick on your face

So it goes

I'm yours to keep

And I'm yours to lose

You know I'm not a bad girl, but I

Do bad things with you

So it goes

Come here, dressed in black now

So, so, so it goes

Scratches down your back now

So, so, so it goes

You did a number on me

But, honestly, baby, who's counting?

I did a number on you

But, honestly, baby, who's counting?

You did a number on me

But, honestly, baby, who's counting?

Who's counting?

One, two, three

And all our pieces fall (pieces fall)

Right into place

Getting caught up in a moment (caught up, caught up)

Lipstick on your face

So it goes

I'm yours to keep (oh)

And I'm yours to lose (baby)

You know I'm not a bad girl, but I (I do)

Do bad things with you

So it goes

Come here, dressed in black now

So, so, so it goes

Scratches down your back now

So, so, so it goes

Come here, dressed in black now

So, so, so it goes

Scratches down your back now

So, so, so it goes
