To where did your kindness extend to bruises on my neck? At night in your bedroom No matter, I take no offence Because pain can't affect me the way it affects you So if I hurt you You can call me cruel And when you hurt me You can change that rule I am only here to entertain you when you're lonely at night (Ooh) You leave the room, and it ceases to exist You're the only man alive You are the protagonist Do as you please Yours is the only narrative Nothing matters Except for your happiness Treat me like I'm your possession Something new for your collection Nobody is real You are the only exception You are a God's divine selection You're the one You're the one How does it feel to be the only one? To feel to be the only one to feel (Ooh) You leave the room, and it ceases to exist You're the only man alive You are the protagonist Do as you please Yours is the only narrative Nothing matters Except for your happiness Nothing matters Except for your happiness Nothing matters When you're the protagonist Wait, excuse my sentience I am talking out of turn I'm an actress with a script Not an extra without words And I can go out by myself And I can meet somebody else Put my hand around their heart And I can rip the whole thing out And I will only call them up When I'm hungry for affection Then I'll look into their eyes And see only my reflection And I'll never look back And I'll never feel regret When I leave them in the morning But what did they expect? I leave the room, and it ceases to exist I'm the only man alive I am the protagonist Do as I please Mine is the only narrative Nothing matters Except for my happiness
