Stinger - Razorlight

I don’t want to get to know you

get too close to you,

Though you may want me to.

I’ve been watching you

They’ve been deceiving you,

It gives you an excuse

To taste some abuse.

No one likes to

Be lied to

Now you lie to me to protect yourself

Please remember the words we exchanged

How the truth changes shape under strain

And I’m stung every time

I don’t love you

I don’t like you

I dig what you do

And that’s all

I don’t know you

Don’t respect you

Don’t expect too much

From me or from you

And if I have to choose between me and you

I’d choose me though I know I’d lose

And be stung every time

Oh, it’s a stinger

It’s a bitch

We are lungs spitting welter

A heart with a schism

A bond with a stich

I don’t love you

I don’t respect you

Don’t expect too much

From me or you

I don’t know you

I never did

I dig who you were

And that’s it

And if I have to chose between me and you

It’s the last thing that I’d want to do

I don’t love you

I don’t love you
