808's & What Kanye Said

If everyone who gets their heart broken gets it like Kanye West,
im probably gonna start singing and making bad music soon
Maybe i'll be like Lupe though, and put up my Intruder Alert.
If only you had payed attention to the sirens,
we could have caught him
but no, he caught you
He took you away
He slipped in - in the sneakiest of ways - in the middle of the night.
while i slept
and you wept
i wish i could get you back, but im sitting behind this wall of glass
watching you, with him - but my hands are tied behind my back.

He walked in when he noticed you were weak and i was tired.
he scooped you up, and didnt give you a chance to react
all awhile, i was still asleep.

but now im awake, and its too late.
too late like one republic.


there's no way to compete with the thief
because he's the one filling in the gaps that i was just too stupid to look at
he'll sing to you
cuz i never did it
he'll dance around with you in a lily field
cuz i never did that either

but remember, he still an intruder.

now that you're gone, i can't sleep anymore.
i can't close my eyes.
i find myself staring at the glass - with you two on the other side.
