Why 00:02
I am 00:04
I, uh 00:05
I burn like peppermint, I binge like cinnamon 00:15
A spike in insulin, Acetaminophen 00:22
You wait in wet cement, I trip into your hands 00:30
A slow carcinogen, what a hell I'm living in 00:36
I just wanted to be loved, I just wanted a damn hug 00:43
Now it's crushing my chest, and I'm trying my best 00:50
Yeah, I'm trying my best, but 00:54
Sex hysteria 00:58
I fall back into ya 01:01
I just can't get enough 01:05
Get enough, get enough, get enough, oh, oh 01:07
Sex hysteria 01:12
I crawl back into ya 01:15
I just can't give it up 01:19
Give it up, give it up, give it up, oh, oh 01:21
I was supposed to be in Paris, now I'm just embarrassed 01:25
Now I'm hiding on a terrace, now you feeling like a terrorist 01:28
Now I'm drowning in awareness that you might be aware of it 01:32
Aren't you just embarrassed? Now I'm just fucking embarrassed 01:35
Your words, I think they might have no merit 01:39
I'm one to talk, that just ain't fair 01:40
They coming in so loud and clear 01:42
They tell much, but I can't hear it 01:44
What kind of shit did I inherit? 01:45
I could drop it now and leave it there 01:47
But I ain't going nowhere near it 01:49
I've been alone, and I fucking fear it, ah 01:51
Sex hysteria 01:54
I fall back into ya 01:58
I just can't get enough 02:01
Get enough, get enough, get enough, oh, oh 02:04

Why
I am
I, uh
I burn like peppermint, I binge like cinnamon
A spike in insulin, Acetaminophen
You wait in wet cement, I trip into your hands
A slow carcinogen, what a hell I'm living in
I just wanted to be loved, I just wanted a damn hug
Now it's crushing my chest, and I'm trying my best
Yeah, I'm trying my best, but
Sex hysteria
I fall back into ya
I just can't get enough
Get enough, get enough, get enough, oh, oh
Sex hysteria
I crawl back into ya
I just can't give it up
Give it up, give it up, give it up, oh, oh
I was supposed to be in Paris, now I'm just embarrassed
Now I'm hiding on a terrace, now you feeling like a terrorist
Now I'm drowning in awareness that you might be aware of it
Aren't you just embarrassed? Now I'm just fucking embarrassed
Your words, I think they might have no merit
I'm one to talk, that just ain't fair
They coming in so loud and clear
They tell much, but I can't hear it
What kind of shit did I inherit?
I could drop it now and leave it there
But I ain't going nowhere near it
I've been alone, and I fucking fear it, ah
Sex hysteria
I fall back into ya
I just can't get enough
Get enough, get enough, get enough, oh, oh
Sex hysteria
