You say it's all in my head

And the things I think just don't make sense

So where you been then? Don't go all coy

Don't turn it round on me like it's my fault

See I can see that look in your eyes

The one that shoots me each and every time (each and every time)

You grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

These days when I see you

You make it look like I'm see-through

Do tell me why you waste our time

When your heart ain't in it, and you're not satisfied

You know I know just how you feel

I'm starting to find myself feeling that way too

When you grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

Time and time again, I play the role of fool

(Just for you)

Even in the daylight when you think that

(I don't see you)

Try to look for things I hear but our eyes never find

Though I do know how you play

You grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her, eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
