St. Vincent - The Strangers lyrics

[St. Vincent - The Strangers lyrics]

Lover, I don't play to win but
For the thrill until I'm spent
(Paint the black hole blacker)
(Paint the black hole blacker)
And I threw flowers in your face
On my sister's wedding day
(Paint the black hole blacker)
(Paint the black hole blacker)

You showed up with a black eye
Looking to go start a fight
(Paint the black hole blacker)
(Paint the black hole blacker)
Playboys under the mattress
Like I wouldn't notice
(Paint the black hole blacker)
(Paint the black hole blacker)

What do I share? What do I keep from all the
Strangers who sleep where I sleep?

Desperate don't look good on you
Neither does your virtue
(Paint the black hole blacker)
(Paint the black hole blacker)
Good souls have born better sons
Better souls born worse ones
(Paint the black hole blacker)
(Paint the black hole blacker)

What do I share? What do I keep from all the
Strangers who sleep where I sleep?

You showed up with a black eye
Looking to finish a fight and lover
I don't play to win but for
The thrill until I'm spent
(Paint the black hole blacker)
(Paint the black hole blacker)
