Strawberry (Blonde Version) Video (MV)

Yeah, you could say I got daddy issues, you'll excuse them, misuse them for your savior delusion
Guess what, the princess has left the building, does their own thing, swing, swing
Singing love, let me live, let me give you a reason, cart before the horse, rides always uneven
Let me tell you bout space and chemistry, like how the earth don't revolve around you saving me
Baby, sweet of you to try, but I'm the only one who can untangle my mind
I don't dress up my damage, I'm here to reclaim all the parts I left stranded
Swim away from the isles of self-abandon
I'm guilty of tilting the perception, acting out for attention
Using my tongue to keep you coming my direction
But I swear, I've really learned my lesson, impulse is not the answer to the question
The only one responsible for my own disinhibition is
The bitch I share a brain with whose lips don't always listen
Try to vibe with my toxicity, lead the dance, till my feet spin out from under me
Let's say there were a hundred things that used to trigger me
Now there's only fifty, little victories
Listen, I'm not interested in playing the victim
Cos when I did, it manipulated them-and that's not fair
That's not something you do if you care, so now I'm aware
And can change it, took the first step, which is to name it
I'll have you know, I'm a sweeter shade of red flag
Strawberry, tart, sweet, little scary
Strawberry blonde, so let's get along, I was born on fire
Get used to the smoke, get you higher, give you no more reasons to cope
No-I'm teasing, it's just a joke, I'm a hoax, hide in my invisibility cloak
I'm a tunnel, I'm a bridge, I'm the light at the end
I'm your longest, most palpable game, of play pretend
Let your heart out of its chest, test your mind, check it at chess
Do you care? If my apartment's a mess
That I bat for both sides, shrink heads, whine
Depart, never return, to baseline
Lie, be too shy to admit it, counterfeit, flip it
If I lay on my side, will you mold yourself to fit next to me
Will you hear it, when I let slip my exit strategy
Strawberry, strawberry, strawberry
Strawberry, strawberry, strawberry
Strawberry, strawberry, strawberry
Lips in love tell the truth, but I can't believe them
We could just be friends, could we just be friends
Doesn't everything end anyway, still more to say-pause, delay, inevitable decay
Last ditch effort to save this, run down to the basement
Pedal to pavement, adjust, unpack the bereavement
Love is a loan, later we'll pay
Just let me have another day
Let me have another day
Let me have another day
Let me have today
