BOY
AMA Jane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You made me cry, I hope it keeps you up at night
Skinny jeans, brown eyes, player
Darling won't you, Hold back from all the lies
We'll fake it boy, Let's get naked boy, BOY
You can break by heart in two (I'm not in love with you)
You can touch me but it won't break down my walls
Feeling crazy, it's a curse, another BOY with no manners
Jump in, squeeze tight, cuddle up, keep me warm inside
I'm lost, double vision, going round in circles, repetition
We'll fake it boy, Let's get naked boy, BOY
You can hate me if you want (Whoa oh oh)
You can break by heart in two (I'm not in love with you)
You can touch me but it won't break down my walls
Feeling crazy, it's a curse, another BOY with no manners
How could you be so deceiving, fucking her, hurting my feelings
(My skin, my bones, my lover. Keep it low, keep it undercover)
I can't help staring at the ceiling, wishing you were underneath me
(Gone and lost your tiny dancer, just a BOY with zero manners)
Another BOY with no manners.
You can hate me if you want (Whoa oh oh)
You can break by heart in two (I'm not in love with you)
You can touch me but it won't break down my walls
Feeling crazy, it's a curse, another BOY with no manners
