Timebomb

Pink · The Truth About Love [2012]

Screw fear, it's contagious

Infecting everything

It makes me do such stupid, stupid stuff

I say things I never mean



What exactly do I think?

Who am I protecting?

If I fall, will it blow up in my face?

Life just crazy



I'm delicate

I'm sensitive

Please, try to be more careful



You're mean

You're a lunatic

Let's try to make this fun again



It's only love, give it away

(It's only love)

You'll probably get it back again

(It's only love)



It's simple, it's a silly thing

Thrown away like a boomerang

I wish we'd all collide in love

It's only love not a timebomb

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh



I'm tired from last night's fight

I wish I hadn't started it

I hate when my fear speaks for me

It makes me nasty



I thought we could start again

Go back to the days when we felt like friends

It's all too serious for me

And I know I'm guilty



Match sticks and poison

That's what I'll add to the fire

My dear, I'm frozen

Turned from a saint to a liar



It's only love, give it away

(It's only love)

You'll probably get it back again

(It's only love)



It's simple, it's a silly thing

Thrown away like a boomerang

I wish we'd all collide in love

It's only love not a timebomb

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh



I don't want to be precious

I don't want to feel stress

Life is for the living

But not a living hell



So take it, take this

Oh, you can have all of me

Take it, take this

Here, you can have everything



I don't want to be flawless

When I go, I want the cuts to show



So take it, take this

Oh, you can have all of me

Take it, take this

Oh fuck it, have everything



It's only love, give it away

(It's only love)

You'll probably get it back again

(It's only love)



It's simple, it's a silly thing

Thrown away like a boomerang

I wish we'd all collide in love

It's only love not a timebomb

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah

(It's only love)

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah

(It's only love)



It's simple, it's a silly thing

Thrown away like a boomerang

I wish we'd all collide in love

It's only love not a timebomb
