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
