[00:17.91]Make sure nobody sees you leave
[00:21.7]Hood over your head
[00:23.03]Keep your eyes down
[00:25.91]Tell your friends you're out for a run
[00:29.84]You'll be flushed when you return
[00:33.9]Take the road less traveled by
[00:37.83]Tell yourself you can always stop
[00:42.07]What started in beautiful rooms
[00:45.94]Ends with meetings in parking lots
[00:48.67]And that's the thing about illicit affairs
[00:51.59]And clandestine meetings
[00:53.88]And longing stares
[00:55.91]It's born from just one single glance
[00:59.67]But it dies and it dies and it dies
[01:03.2]A million little times
[01:13.88]Leave the perfume on the shelf
[01:17.92]That you picked out just for him
[01:21.93]So you leave no trace behind
[01:25.88]Like you don't even exist
[01:29.92]Take the words for what they
[01:32.0]Are A dwindling mercurial high
[01:38.119995]A d**g that only worked
[01:42.270004]The first few hundred times
[01:44.66]And that's the thing about illicit affairs
[01:47.61]And clandestine meetings
[01:49.71]And stolen stares
[01:51.630005]They show their truth one single time
[01:55.490005]But they lie and they lie and they lie
[01:59.18]A million little times
[02:06.87]And you wanna scream
[02:08.44]Don't call me kid
[02:10.26]Don't call me baby
[02:12.38]Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me
[02:16.14]You showed me colors you know I can't see with anyone else
[02:24.36]Don't call me kid
[02:26.27]Don't call me baby
[02:28.36]Look at this idiotic fool that you made me
[02:32.39]You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else
[02:39.65]And you know d**n well
[02:43.14]For you I would ruin myself
[02:47.07]A million little times
