Creative Liberties

[Verse 1]

Okay, it was fun at first

Playing oh so chill to make it work

Wanting you so bad until it hurt

'Cause I know that's how you like it

Bloody knees, I'm in the dirt

Home alone, catastrophize the worst

Knowing so damn well that I would cave

And be yours, if you said the word

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I'm thinking

Can't stop thinking of you

Know you're probably

Thinking of somebody else

I fell in too deep

I took some liberties in

Stories of you that I told myself

[Chorus]

I'm not crazy

Know it's fiction, baby

But I've got you where I want you

In my head

I can fill the blanks in

Words that you're not saying

Like you need me, want to be

More than friends

I got you where I want you

In my head

[Verse 2]

I'll sleep easier and say

Know you're out with her but either way

You'll come stumbling home and think of me

Tonight, I'll be your drunken fantasy

[Pre-Chorus 2]

You're thinking

Can't stop thinking of me

Though it's probably

Only what I'll tell myself

Close my eyes

The truth but modified

Know it's not real life

But I can barely tell

[Chorus]

I'm not crazy

Know it's fiction, baby

But I've got you where I want you

In my head

I can fill the blanks in

Words that you're not saying

Like you need me, want to be

More than friends

I got you where I want you

In my head

[Bridge]

In my head

We're kissing in the bathroom stall and

In my head

I'm tracing down your body with my fingertips

I know it isn't real, so how's it feel like this

In my head, in my head?

There's seven different versions of you

In that dress

Your face is painted on the back of my eyelids

I know it isn't real, so how's it feel like this

Feel like this?

[Chorus]

I'm not crazy

Know it's fiction, baby

But I've got you where I want you

In my head

I can fill the blanks in

Words that you're not saying

Like you need me, want to be

More than friends

I got you where I want you

In my head
