Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart I can't believe I forgot your name Oh baby won't you cum again? She said "I've got a problem with your shoes And your tunes, but I might move in And I thought that you were straight, now I'm wondering" You're so conceited, I said "i love you" What does it matter if I lie to you? I don't regret it but I'm glad that we're through So don't you tell me that you "just don't get it" 'Cause I know you do Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart It's not about reciprocation, it's just all about me A sycophantic, prophetic, socratic junkie wannabe There's so much skin to see A simple epicurean philosophy And you say I'm such a cliché I can't see the difference in it either way And we left things to protect my mental health But you'll call me when you're bored and you're playing with yourself You're so conceited, I said "i love you" What does it matter if I lie to you? I don't regret it but I'm glad that we're through So don't you tell me that you just don't get it 'Cause I know you Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound I know the sound, of your heart
