[Intro]

(I, I, I, I)


[Verse 1]

Manic pixie dream girl

Hanging on your broken mirror

Swinging slowly next to Jesus

With my head rolled back like Caesar


[Pre-Chorus]

(I) I like it when you take control

(I) I just thought I'd let you know

(I) I'm phantom teeth and broken bones

(I) I killed myself to let you grow


[Chorus]

Not your holy ghost

Not your antidote

Not your cameo

I'm the goddamn show


[Verse 2]

Manic pixie dream girl

Never grow up, she's a keeper

Makes you happy when you need her

Look, now I'm the fucking leader


[Pre-Chorus]

(I) I drove your car straight off the roof

(I) I'm all black eyes and bloody bruised

(I) I think I gotta cut you loose

(I-I-I) I killed myself to let you bloom


[Chorus]

Not your holy ghost

Not your antidotе

Not your cameo

I'm the goddamn show

If I hold you close

I will ovеrdose

Taking all the blows

Gotta let you go


[Verse 3]

Manic pixie dream girl

Hanging on your broken mirror

Swinging slowly next to Jesus

With my head rolled back like Caesar


[Verse 4]

Manic pixie dream girl

Never grow up, she's a keeper

Makes you happy when you need her

Look, now I'm the fucking leader


[Outro]

(I, I, I, I)
