You're stepping under my skin
Holding me down, down, down
Sinking the deeper I'm in
And I don't want to drown

'Cause you kiss like a third love should
Poison me now
And it cuts like a third love should

Uhh uhh uhh
Breaking out of this cage I've made
And now I'm freaking out
Uhh uhh uhh
Tripping over the same mistakes
They're gonna tear me down

Cuts like a third love, like a third love
It cuts like a third love should
Cuts like a third love, like a third love
It cuts like a third love should

Treading over the blame
You're laying me down, down, down
I'm sorry I was afraid
And so I'll shake you out

And your lips never understood
Talking me round
And your touch never did me good
It cuts like a third love should

Uhh uhh uhh
Breaking out of this cage I've made
And now I'm freaking out
Uhh uhh uhh
Tripping over the same mistakes
They're gonna tear me down

Cuts like a third love, like a third love
It cuts like a third love should
Cuts like a third love, like a third love
It cuts like a third love should

We deserve a medal, babe
Put it in a picture frame
Next to all the lies you painted over me
It cuts like a third love should

Uhh uhh uhh
I'm breaking out of the cage I've made
And now I'm freaking out
Uhh uhh uhh
I'm tripping over the same mistakes
They're gonna tear me down

It cuts like a third love, like a third love
(I'm breaking out of this cage I've made)
Cuts like a third love should
(And now I'm freaking out)

Cuts like a third love, like a third love
(I'm tripping over the same mistakes)
It cuts like a third love should
(They're gonna tear me down)

Cuts like a third love, like a third love
It cuts like a third love should
