Floater Friend

I wrap my flaws in ribbon
And mask it with perfume
Stay out too late more than I should
So I'd look cool to you
I made it my addiction
To be part of every room
You call yourself the sun
I'd do my best to be the moon

I want to be inked in
I'll settle for being written in chalk
I'm there 'cause it's easy
I know where I stand
Just as I thought

And I don't belong anywhere
I'm just there to be there
I'll show up where I'm wanted
And I think I'm too drunk to care
But I'll still do my hair
I'll show up where I'm wanted

I'm always around waiting up for your call
'Cause I'm like a moth to a flame
And now I resent that I bothered at all
Guess I know my place
And maybe it's better that way

I'm too good at pretending
That I don't live in my skin
I'll have a new identity, depending who I'm with
And if I laid myself out the table
Would you like who I was?
If I let my guard down
Would you still keep in touch? 'Cause

I want to be inked in
I'll settle for being written in chalk
I'm there 'cause it's easy
I know where I stand
Just as I thought

And I don't belong anywhere
I'm just there to be there
I'll show up where I'm wanted
And I think I'm too drunk to care
But I'll still do my hair
I'll show up where I'm wanted

I'm always around waiting up for your call
'Cause I'm like a moth to a flame
And now I resent that I bothered at all
Guess I know my place
And maybe it's better that way

And I don't wanna make any trouble at all
I know anyway
It's better to go without, say, mm
That I know my place, and maybe it's better that way
