EN
I've gotta put my feet in to see if the water's too cold I've gotta taste the broth to know if it needs salt And I check my watch to see if I'm right on time And I talk to the mirror sometimes, say to myself 'You're gonna be fine' I am a hypocrite I sing about love but I can't waltz And I say that I'm a romantic Just so it's never my fault It takes all sorts of energy Keepin my smile on straight Makin sure all the bills get paid Putting my big dreams away I am a hypocrite I sing about love but I can't waltz And I say that I'm a romantic Just so it's never my fault I wanna peel off the layers That my life has caked on Just by snapping my fingers Erase everything I've done wrong Cause I am afraid to leave you But I know staying here is worse So on the count of three I'm ripping of this bandaid I'm breaking the curse I am a hypocrite I sing about love but I can't waltz And I say that I'm a romantic Just so you don't think it's my fault I wanna warm myself by a fire Sittin right next to where I hurt Where I hurt
