Oh, the razorblade, that's what I call love,      |
I bet you'd pick it up and mess around with it    |
If I put it down                                  |
It gets extremely complicated.                    |R
Anything to forget everything.                    |I
                                                  |F
You've got to take me out,                        |F
At least once a week                              |
Whether I'm in your arms,                         |1
Or I'm at your feet.                              |
I know exactly what you're thinking               |
You won't say it now                              |
But in your heart it's loud                       |


Oh no, my feelings are more important than yours. |
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry.       |RIFF 2
Let it go.                                        |


Oh, the razor blade,                              |
Wish it would snap this rope                      |
The world is in your hand                         |
Or it's at your throat                            |
At times it's not that complicated                |R
Anything to forget everything.                    |I
                                                  |F
He would never talk,                              |F
But he was not shy                                |
She was a street-smart girl,                      |1
But she could not lie                             |
They were perfect for each other                  |
Say it now                                        |
'Cause in your heart it's loud                    |


Oh no, my feelings are more important than yours. |
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry.       |RIFF 2
                                                  |          
Oh!
