Jessie Reyez – Shutter Island lyrics
[Intro: Unintelligible shouting]

[Verse 1]
The goodbyes are getting old
Next time you can go ahead and go
I'm tired of begging you to love me

[Pre-Chorus]
Goodness, gracious, you're amazing
According to you, I'm a lucky lady
So why'd you lie to me?
Why do I cry to sleep?

Good, gracious, I'm replaceable
You say that I'm too crazy
I guess you were right
I guess you were right

[Chorus]
My straight jacket's custom-made though
(With fucking diamonds)

My straight jacket's custom-made though
(With fucking rubies)
I'm crazy just like Galileo
My straight jacket's custom-made though

[Verse 2]
You keep hitting, I've been bruised
Holy field I can't hear you
I'm tired of begging you to love me

You're expecting me to say
Loco, please, please stay
I'm tired of begging you to love me

[Pre-Chorus]
Goodness, gracious, you're amazing
According to you, I'm a lucky lady
So why do I cry to sleep?
Why'd you lie to me?

Good, gracious, I'm replaceable
You say that I'm too crazy
I guess you were right
I guess you were right

[Chorus]
My straight jacket's custom-made though
(I'm fucking famous)
My straight jacket's custom-made though
(My fuckin' roadies)
I'm crazy just like Galileo
My straight jacket's custom-made though

[Bridge]
For a second I forgot I was a bad bitch
Begging you to stay became a habit
I'm tired of begging you to love me

I know I can be better, needed practice
I know I can be better, but the fact is
I'm tired of begging you to love me

[Pre-Chorus]
Goodness gracious, let's just break up
I tried everything to save us
So why do I cry to sleep
Every time you try to leave?

Goodness, gracious, this relationship
Is full of so much hatred
I guess you were right
I guess you were right
