"Monogamy" lyrics

"Monogamy"

I fall in love
With a different person each week
But I can only do monogamy
Someone tell me what that means

I've been around
But I don't know what I leave behind
Did my lovers all think I was kind?
And when I left, did they know I was lying?

Would you tell me if I was a player but the mouth of God?
Would you tell me if you had to fake it but you loved me honestly?

I want people to think
That I am the love of their lives
When I know they aren't the love of mine
And then I call myself cruel to be kind

I haven't browsed
Through kiosks with gold wedding bands
Since hue bending light held my hand
Silent and walking on Bank

Would you tell me if I was a player but the mouth of God?
Would you tell me if you had to fake it but you loved me honestly?

I fall in love
With a different person each week
But I can only do monogamy
Someone tell me what that means
