Playhouse (Radio Edit) Lyrics

Just let me pretend one minute longer

Chasing after anything that makes me feel something

Dressing up my dolls in their favorite colors

Their smiles never seem to fade away

Play with me I'll let you be the bad guy

You break in I'll hide under the bed

Tearing down my play house from the inside

Why don't we just give this game a rest

What a beautiful mess we made

But after all a spade is a spade

I know you want to hold me

But I'm begging you to wait

I know it's not real

You loved me so desperately

I still reach for somebody

Even somebody that hurts me

Their pretty little faces staring blankly

As their little world just falls apart

How can they still be so goddamn happy

Everybody knows that you can't break a plastic heart

What a beautiful mess we made

But after all a spade is a spade

I know you want to hurt me

But I'm begging you to wait

I know it was never real

You hold me so desperately

I still scream for somebody

Even the somebody who hurt me

My skin my smile my eyes

Can't tell if I'm alive

You dressed me up and sat me down

I feel like I'm not mine

My hands my feet I tried

To move but I was right

I'm playing house

But this house isn't mine

The basement caught on fire

What a beautiful mess we made

But a spade is still a fucking spade

I know you want to kill me

But I'm begging you to wait

I know that this isn't real

You hold onto me desperately

I'm holding onto somebody

Even somebody who's hurting me

What a beautiful mess we made
