a classic love affair, our skin stripped bare
laughing at our names on a frozen window pane
call me pretty, call me witty
but i'm getting kinda tired of going through the motions everyday
call me crazy if you're getting lazy
getting kinda tired of an old fashioned lover like me
go on, hate me instead of asking
if i was born with this black heart or if it grew in me
i'm kind of a second rate prom queen
clinging to my daydream
outta luck and outta time
and will i ever make you mine?
i'll end the world now 'cause i dunno how
anyone would wanna live in a polluted shit-hole like this
am i cold and caring? alive and daring
like romeo & juliet, like forcing on the shoe to fit
it's kind of a necessary evil
living a life far off from who you are
holding onto ghosts
and loving someone who's much too far
i'm not gonna scream for you
i'll let you go, you know
so, rest in peace my mind, my soul
i dunno where i am now
and i'm running, i'm running, i'm running outta time
i'm running, i'm running, i'm running outta time
i'm running, i'm running, i'm running outta time
oh ah
and i will never make you mine
a classic love affair, my skin stripped bare
remembering the heat of my name on your lips
you were pretty, you were witty
and i'm so goddamn tired of forcing on the shoe to fit
i'm kind of a second rate prom queen
still clinging to my daydream
fresh outta luck, outta time
and would you still be mine?
we can have a great adventure any time
but i'm still running out of time
oh, i'm running, i'm running, i'm running outta time
i'm running, i'm running, i'm running outta time
i'm running, i'm running, i'm running outta time
oh ah oh ah
would you still be mine?
we can have a great adventure any time
