I was always blue behind the red blood stain on my lips

You were always green with envy

Saw right through the tenderness

We were like a california sunset

Faded to die any minute

Getting rid of you might be the best thing I ever did.

And I was seeing us in a silent movie

Taking off our gloves like a violent crime scene

Diamonds in the cut always know how to fool me

Oh honey.

But I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run, run

When my makeup does

When my makeup does.

And I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run

And I know when to run, run, run

When my makeup does

When my makeup does.

I was always blue behind the black mascara

That I cried

You could be as sweet as honey

But I knew the darkness in your mind.

We were like a gorgeous bed of roses

Ready to die any minute

Getting rid of you might be the best thing I ever did.

And I was seeing us in a silent movie

Taking off our gloves like a violent crime scene

Diamonds in the cut always know how to fool me

Oh honey.

But I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run, run

When my makeup does

When my makeup does.

And I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run

And I know when to run, run, run

When my makeup does

When my makeup does.

I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run, run

I know when to run, run

When my makeup does

When my makeup does.
