Bellevue

[Platinum Greenwich]

Before I met you, I had no one

And I could go back to having no one again

He doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around

 

He doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around

 

Baby in Bellevue, I had no one

And I could go back to being a lush again

If it would make you proud, if it would make you proud

 

I know you like to go out and mingle with your friends

He doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around

 

And I could change my name, go back to gold lamé

Just like the good old days, tangos and Tanqueray

Nothing can hurt me now, nothing can hurt me now, nothing can hurt me now

 

Nothing can hurt me

 

Now I will wait for you

For three-hundred years I play pretend

And put my arm around a man who isn't there

 

I must be insane and now it seems I've found the one to say that I'm scared

Who doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around

 

Doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around, he doesn't want me around

[Veinsineon]

This has better lyrics than 50% of NFR 

[May]

Now I will wait for you

For three-hundred years I play pretend

And put my arm around a man who isn't there

[daphnedinkley]

these lyricsssss  the idea of pretending ur fine with being alone and going back to "tangos and Tanqueray" and making out like partying and glamour is all that matters to u but secretly ur playing pretend and waiting on a man who dont want you...... lana u spoke to my damn SOUL here 

[Lindsay Lohan]

 

Wonder if they spoke about it 

[Neon Palmmm]

for what it's worth, Bellevue is a very old and very famous mental hospital in Manhattan
