[Gus] You never wanted what I offered You only offered what I had When loving leaves you feeling bothered You'd better just stay home with dad The world is not your little dollhouse You can't stop playing when you want ‘Cause in the real world, they're a fallout No plastic food in restaurants You never wanted misdirection But spontaneity's a b**h And when I made that love connection You never scratched me where I itched You always loved Wisconsin winters Though I can't tell the months apart But when you lift my chest in splinters I saw the ice sheets matched your heart [Amber] You can't imagine what it feels like To feel the pressure of a fool
Whenever you pulled off that turnpike We only played by your own rules I gotta say you're no magician You're little melodies fell flat I left you of my own volition Of course you'll never sing of that [Gus] You never wanted what I offered [Amber] I never wanted you at all [Gus] Then why did you say that you loved me? [Amber] Now we both know you took control [Gus] I thought you wanted my affection [Amber] Stop thinking all my thoughts for me [Gus] You know you're nowhere near perfection [Amber] So this is how it's going to be [Gus] I wanted you why can't you see [Amber] So if you love me set me free
