The Platinum Rule

Hello stranger, I'd like to introduce you
To some seductive words that will bring on deja vu
Sure, the way that I speak is sweet to the taste
But tango with me and you
Won't be the same

Why do you always insist to say "la vie"?
I've been walking in circles
But I feel like I'm standing in place
"These days you're more hopeless than a romantic"

You're dead wrong, and I won't be coming home
"Listen carefully, baby, sweetie
Let me talk you through hanging yourself
Without using the chair for a boost

I wanna come home all alone
And see you thought the consequences
Through in tying your noose
