You're used to the sound of a heart that's breaking
I know it don't faze you anymore
You're the king of the game that you're playing
I know you've played it 100 times before
You fill your bedroom up with trophies
Then you get a kick outta closing the door
Got all the words to keep 'em hoping
I know you've said them 100 times before
Then there's me, a fox for your gun
Then there's me, just love me for fun
Then there's me no use in pretending
Oh there's me, 101
I might as well stand in front of a bullet
Close my eyes and kick the chair to the floor
It's like a speeding train is coming
I know you've crashed it 100 times before
Then there's me, a fox for your gun
Then there's me, just love me for fun
Ooh there's me no, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, 101
Everybody says I gotta be crazy
That I deserve everything that I get
But I got a feeling that makes me wanna ignore
All that you've done 100 times before
Cause then there's me, could I be the one
And baby there's me to make you undone
Ooh darling there's me no use, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, 101, me, 101
So I gotta be, I gotta be, I gotta be 101
Maybe it's time, maybe it's me
Maybe I could be, let me pretend
I gotta be, I wanna be 101
Yeah baby
