Lyrics[]
Oricât scriu, cu-oricât skill
Pe orice stil, cât de fin
Ea ma bagă-n-trun film de mă simt iar copil
Mă învârt gen vinyl
Că eu vreau să joc în filmul ei
Oricât stau, oricât dau
Oricât vreau, oricât beau
Orice top, orice toc
Orice alții vorbeau
Mie tot nu-mi păsa
O alegeam și din mii de femei
Că eu număr, ea se-ascunde
Eu o sun, ea nu raspunde
Meci de box cu-atâtea runde
Și ca pe un inel
Mă joacă pe degete
Am încredere
Da' minte așa frumos
Mă-ntoarce pe dos
Vorbește murdar
Da' când vrea ea doar
Minte așa-ușor
Lasă patul gol
Pe degete
Am încredere
Da' minte așa frumos
Mă-ntoarce pe dos
Vorbește murdar
Da' când vrea ea doar
Minte așa-ușor
Lasă patul gol
Don't you know, don't you know
Don't you just wanna sit right next to me?
(With your favourite dress on the floor and your dreams)
The scent of mistake just reminds you of me
And now all of your demons keep screaming my name
Take a little sip of venom now
Say you love me, say you want me now
Fool me all over again, baby
Lost in your eyes
Nights I crave the touch of you
Wondering just what you do
I'm begging you, I'm on my knees
Take your clothes off
Step on me
And I'm lost in your bedsheets
Tryna get closer
With marks on my neck and your makeup all over
Photos of us
They remind me, I still love you
What's a king without a queen
What's another way to get me sober
De-ge-te, de ce te temi, spune-mi repede
Mi-ai alergat prin cap pe toate pernele
De-ge-te, de ce nu vezi că mi-e sete de
Otrava ei
Off and on
Like a radio song (What?)
Messing me around (Uh)
Turning upside down (Yeah)
Dirty talking me
Everyday's a game (Everyday's a game)
Lets me sleep alone
She plays me like oh
Am încredere
Da' minte așa frumos
Mă-ntoarce pe dos
Că vorbește murdar
Da' când vrea ea doar
Minte așa-ușor
Lasă patul gol
Pe degete
Am încredere
Da' minte așa frumos
Mă-ntoarce pe dos
Vorbește murdar
Da' când vrea ea doar
Minte așa-ușor
Lasă patul gol
(Pe degete)
No matter how much I write, with any skill
On any style, how fine
She puts me in a movie where I feel like a child again
I spin like vinyl
That I want to play in her film
No matter how much I stay, no matter how much I give
As much as I want, as much as I drink
Any top, any heel
Whatever others were saying
I still didn't care
I was also choosing her from thousands of women
That I count, she hides
I call her, she doesn't answer
Boxing match with so many rounds
And like a ring
He plays on my fingers
I trust
Yes, lie so beautifully
Turn me upside down
Talk dirty
Yes, when she wants to
He lies so easily
Leave the bed empty
On the fingers
I trust
Yes, lie so beautifully
Turn me upside down
Talk dirty
Yes, when she wants to
He lies so easily
Leave the bed empty
Don't you know, don't you know
Don't you just wanna sit right next to me?
(With your favorite dress on the floor and your dreams)
The scent of mistake just reminds you of me
And now all of your demons keep screaming my name
Take a little sip of venom now
Say you love me, say you want me now
Fool me all over again, baby
Lost in your eyes
Nights I crave the touch of you
Wondering just what you do
I'm begging you, I'm on my knees
Take your clothes off
Step on me
And I'm lost in your bedsheets
Tryna get closer
With marks on my neck and your makeup all over
Photos of us
They remind me, I still love you
What's a king without a queen
What's another way to get me sober
De-ge-te, what are you afraid of, tell me quickly
You ran through my head on all the pillows
Come on, why don't you see that I'm thirsty
Her poison
Off and on
Like a radio song (What?)
Messing me around (Uh)
Turning upside down (Yeah)
Dirty talking me
Everyday's a game
Let me sleep alone
She plays me like oh
I trust
Yes, lie so beautifully
Turn me upside down
That he talks dirty
Yes, when she wants to
He lies so easily
Leave the bed empty
On the fingers
I trust
Yes, lie so beautifully
Turn me upside down
Talk dirty
Yes, when she wants to
He lies so easily
Leave the bed empty
(on fingers)
