Boys Like Me — Lyrics

 

 

Listen Zara
Boys like me
We get used to
Things like you

Boys like me
We don't understand
Lies like yours

Listen Zara
Boys like me
From rags to riches
Bleed for you

Listen Zara
Boys like me
Regret things sometimes
Things like you

But it can rain
She looks like me(?)
But it can rain

Listen Zara
Boys like me
We are short stories
Shapes for you

Boys like me
We live in dreams
But they're yours, not ours
