In it for the pleasure


Operator's on the phone, says I can’t be trusted
Its how you left me alone, it was broke and now it's busted
A little sunshine will do, but outside it's disgusting
It’s barely making a sound, my heart is beatin so loud

I feel this aching in my bones
I feel the pressure
Were you in it for the love?
Or were you, were you in it for the pleasure?

It's late July and the sky's so grey
Everyone's in bed for a month in LA
The house is so quiet, it's barely making a sound
My hands are shaking, my heart is beatin so loud

I feel this aching in my bones
I feel the pressure
Were you in it for the love?
Or was it a game? Were you just in it for the pleasure?

I dive into the pool
The pool was empty
There ain't no water now
My bones feel like an ash cloud
All the minuses and pluses, I try to write ‘em down
It doesn't matter now, my heart is beatin' so loud

I feel this aching in my bones
I feel the pressure
Were you in it for the love?
Or were you just in it for the pleasure?

I lie to myself so I can stay sane
A list of scratched out numbers next to names
And I’m runnin’ out of space
It goes on forever

I feel the pain
I feel the pressure
What was it anyway?
Do you remember my name?
Or was it just a game?
Was it just a game?
Were you just in it for the pleasure?

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
