  • My castle crumbled overnight
    I brought a knife to a gunfight
    They took the crown, but it's alright
    All the liars are calling me one
    Nobody's heard from me for months
    I'm doing better than I ever was

    'Cause my baby's fit like a daydream
    Walkin' with his head down, I'm the one he's walkin' to
    So call it what you want, yeah, call it what you want to
    My baby's fly like a jet stream
    High above the whole scene, loves me like I'm brand new
    So call it what you want, yeah, call it what you want to

    All my flowers grew back as thorns
    Windows boarded up after the storm
    He built a fire just to keep me warm
    All the drama queens taking swings
    All the jokers dressin' up as kings
    They fade to nothin' when I look at him

    And I know I make the same mistakes every time
    Bridges burn, I never learn, at least I did one thing right
    I did one thing right
    I'm laughin' with my lover, makin' forts under covers
    Trust him like a brother, yeah, you know I did one thing right
    Starry eyes sparkin' up my darkest night

    My baby's fit like a daydream
    Walkin' with his head down, I'm the one he's walkin' to
    So call it what you want, yeah, call it what you want to
    My baby's fly like a jet stream
    High above the whole scene, loves me like I'm brand new
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    So call it what you want, yeah, call it what you want to

    I want to wear his initial
    On a chain 'round my neck, chain 'round my neck
    Not because he owns me
    But 'cause he really knows me
    Which is more than they can say, I
    I recall late November
    Holdin' my breath, slowly I said
    "You don't need to save me
    But would you run away with me?"
    Yes (would you run away?)

    My baby's fit like a daydream
    Walkin' with his head down, I'm the one he's walkin' to
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    So call it what you want, yeah, call it what you want to
    My baby's fly like a jet stream
    High above the whole scene, loves me like I'm brand new
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    So call it what you want, yeah, call it what you want to

    (Call it what you want, call it)
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    (Call it what you want, call it what you want, call it)
    Call it what you want, yeah, call it what you want
