Lyrics[]
Italics= DFG
I knew from the start
We were made for each other
Holding each other's hands
With a knife in the other
I knew from the start
He was not like the others
If one of them cheated
They'd probably kill each other
We're both down for the chase
They'll never crack the case
You and me, psycho lovers
We're both down for the chase
They'll never crack the case
You and me, psycho lovers
She went to his house
Claiming they were just going to fuck
But when she came back
She was covered in blood
We're both down for the chase
They'll never crack the case
You and me, psycho lovers
We're both down for the chase
They'll never crack the case
You and me, psycho lovers
Love is a game
And they make the rules
We're one and the same
We don't play like fools
Love is a game
And they make the rules
Psycho Lovers, oh-oh-oh
We're both down for the chase
They'll never crack the case
You and me, psycho lovers
We're both down for the chase
They'll never crack the case
You and me, psycho lovers
You and me, psycho lovers
