"Lady Sisyphus" lyrics

"Lady Sisyphus"

Split ends on the hardwood floor
Keep trimming just a little more
If long blonde hair holds memories
I'll go short again

Thought you were the answer
You left me letters like a lover
I just wanted validation
Made a mistake

And now you're here but I need you gone
Fell for you, now I know your wrong
Followed my heart into hell
Tried to climb out the pit
Fell back into the center
Lady Sisyphus

I needed a quick fix
From the dark so you stop by with matches
Three, two, one
The air tastes like smoke, but the light's gone

And you're here but I need you gone
Fell for you, now I know I'm wrong
Followed my heart into hell
Tried to climb out the pit
Fell back into the center
Lady Sisyphus

You were charming, but charming don't always mean good
If I could go back in time and ignore you

I wouldn't look again
Swear I wouldn't be tempted
No, I'm not Orpheus
And you're not the love of my life
You glowed like the sun
Thought that meant you were "the one"
Now I'm blind but moving on
'Cause you're not the love of my life

You're just here but I need you gone
Fell for you, now I know you're wrong
Followed my heart into hell
Tried to climb out the pit
Fell back into the center

You're just here but I need you gone
Fell for you, now I know you're wrong
Followed my heart into hell
Tried to climb out the pit
Fell back into the center
Lady Sisyphus

You glowed like the sun
Thought that meant you were "the one"
No, I'm not Orpheus
And you're not the love of my life
No
