The night air gives me a chill
Maybe it was the look in her eyes
When she walked away it was a bitter pill
I'm washing it down with the same old lies
Inch by inch the love just dies
Pushing her away every time she tries

Just letting go ould be too easy
I can't just let her make a new start
When I find her I'll say baby please
And then I'll sink my hooks into her heart
I'll tell her that I can't live if we part
Cruelty is a science, but love is a work of art

Love is a work of art
Cupid's crying he's laughing so hard
I'm Vincent VanGoah with a poison dart
Love is a work of art

Her family told her that I was no good
Drove her straight into my arms
She kissed the ground upon which I stand
And laid down for my James Dean charm
I showed her new ways to stay warm
The girl went off like a fire alarm

That seems like such a long time ago
It took her a while to get the message
That the truth is, it takes a fool to go
And pull James Dean out of the wreakage
An actor's love craft is to build a birdcage
Sometimes you're better off just taking out the garbage
