Reckless in Red - Playhouse (Radio Edit) Lyrics

Just let me pretend one minute longer
Chasing after anything that makes me feel something
Dressing up my dolls in their favorite colors
Their smiles never seem to fade away
Play with me I'll let you be the bad guy
You break in I'll hide under the bed
Tearing down my play house from the inside
Why don't we just give this game a rest
What a beautiful mess we made
But after all a spade is a spade
I know you want to hold me
But I'm begging you to wait
I know it's not real
You loved me so desperately
I still reach for somebody
Even somebody that hurts me
Their pretty little faces staring blankly
As their little world just falls apart
How can they still be so goddamn happy
Everybody knows that you can't break a plastic heart
What a beautiful mess we made
But after all a spade is a spade
I know you want to hurt me
But I'm begging you to wait
I know it was never real
You hold me so desperately
I still scream for somebody
Even the somebody who hurt me
My skin my smile my eyes
Can't tell if I'm alive
You dressed me up and sat me down
I feel like I'm not mine
My hands my feet I tried
To move but I was right
I'm playing house
But this house isn't mine
The basement caught on fire
What a beautiful mess we made
But a spade is still a f*cking spade
I know you want to kill me
But I'm begging you to wait
I know that this isn't real
You hold onto me desperately
I'm holding onto somebody
Even somebody who's hurting me
What a beautiful mess we made
