Illicit Affairs

[00:17.62] Make sure nobody sees you leave

[00:21.37] Hood over your head, keep your eyes down

[00:25.62] Tell your friends you're out for a run

[00:29.23] You’ll be flushed when you return

[00:33.49] Take the road less traveled by

[00:37.49] Tell yourself you can always stop

[00:41.62] What started in beautiful rooms

[00:45.62] Ends with meetings in parking lots

[00:48.12] And that's the thing about illicit affairs

[00:51.37] And clandestine meetings and longing stares

[00:55.62] It's born from just one single glance

[00:59.49] But it dies and it dies and it dies

[01:02.74] A million little times

[01:13.26] Leave the perfume on the shelf

[01:17.50] That you picked out just for him

[01:21.51] So you leave no trace behind

[01:25.76] Like you don’t even exist

[01:29.51] Take the words for what they are

[01:34.01] A dwindling, mercurial high

[01:37.88] A drug that only worked

[01:41.89] The first few hundred times

[01:44.38] And that's the thing about illicit affairs

[01:47.38] And clandestine meetings and stolen stares

[01:51.64] They show their truth one single time

[01:55.28] But they lie and they lie and they lie

[01:58.53] A million little times

[02:06.53] And you wanna scream

[02:08.03] Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"

[02:12.02] Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me

[02:16.03] You showed me colors you know I can't see with anyone else

[02:23.66] Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"

[02:28.16] Look at this idiotic fool that you made me

[02:31.91] You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else

[02:39.54] And you know damn well

[02:42.53] For you, I would ruin myself

[02:46.78] A million little times
