Casualty

Nicole Scherzinger · Killer Love [2011]

Too close to see so much of love we stopped breathing

Sweet history ain't enough to keep my heart beating

So many tears for you I sacrificed

Too many lies for you I justified

How can you stand there say you know who's to blame

How can you act like everything is okay



CHORUS:

Don't tell me you love me

Then put the gun to my head

And say I'm not trying, oh

Don't tell me you want me

Then come to my bed

And pretend we're not dyin'

One of us has got to leave

Or one of us is gonna be a casualty



It's cold in here

And my heart still wants you to hold me

Baby, you're never here

But when you're with me I get so lonely



I see you talking, but your lips don't make a sound

You see me crying but my tears don't hurt you now

How can you stand there say you know who's to blame

How can you act like everything is okay



CHORUS:

Don't tell me you love me

Then put the gun to my head

And say I'm not trying, oh

Don't tell me you want me

Then come to my bed

And pretend we're not dyin'

One of us has got to leave

Or one of us is gonna be a casualty



Breath in, breath out

Defend or back down over and over again

I stand there and you go

Mender and I fall over and over again



CHORUS:

Don't tell me you love me

Then put the gun to my head

And say I'm not trying, oh

Don't tell me you want me

Then come to my bed

And then tell we're not dyin'

One of us has got to leave

Or one of us is gonna be a casualty
