  • The most tender place in my heart is for strangers
    I know it's unkind but my own blood is much too dangerous
    Hangin' 'round the ceiling half the time
    Hangin' 'round the ceiling half the time

    Compared to some I've been around
    But I really tried so hard
    That echo chorus lied to me with its
    "Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on"

    In the end I was the mean girl
    Or somebody's in-between girl
    Now it's the devil I love (ah)
    And it's as funny as real love

    I leave the party at 3 AM
    Alone, thank god
    With a Valium from the bride
    It's the devil I love
    It's a devil I love (ah)
    And it's as funny as real love
    And that's as real as true love

    That echo chorus lied to me with its
    "Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on"

    That echo chorus lied to me with its
    "Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on" Writer/s: Dallas Good, Michael Jonathan Belitsky, Neko Richelle Case, Sean Dean, Travis Good
