[Verse 1]
The eyes take notes and the body collects
You're the ghost, you're a comet of the opposite sex
You're a white star, fast car, **** user-friendly god
I was where you belong, you're a don't-know-what-you-got-'til-it's-gone

[Chorus]
We take the one we think we deserve
And slowly try to make it all work
Hurting you the way I was hurt
And every time we waste, it falls apart
Busy outlining the shape of your heart
To try to makе this work of art

[Verse 2]
Shame, shame like a warm bath blamе
As I try to untie the rope or loosen the strain
Breathe deeper, heart keeper, what have we done?
I was where you belong, you're a don't-know-what-you-got-'til-it's-gone

[Chorus]
We take the one we think we deserve
And slowly try to make it all work
Hurting you the way I was hurt
And every time we waste, it falls apart
Busy outlining the shape of your heart
To try to make this work of art
[Bridge]
How will I know?
How will I know?

[Chorus]
We take the one we think we deserve
And slowly try to make it all work
Hurting you the way I was hurt
And every time we waste, it falls apart
Busy outlining the shape of your heart
To try to make this work of art

[Post-Chorus]
We think we deserve
We make it all work
The way I was hurt

[Outro]
The shape of your heart
The shape of your heart
