[Verse 1]
We go together
Better than birds of a feather, you and me
We change the weather, yeah
I'm feelin' heat in December when you're 'round me

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been dancin' on top of cars and stumblin' out of bars
I follow you through the dark, can't get enough
You're the medicine and the pain, the tattoo inside my brain
And, baby, you know it's obvious

[Chorus]
I'm a sucker for you
Say the word and I'll go anywhere blindly
I'm a sucker for you, yeah
Any road you take, you know that you'll find me
'Cause I'm a sucker for all the subliminal things
No one knows about you, 'bout you, 'bout you
And you're makin' the typical me break my typical rules
'Cause it's true, I'm a sucker for you

[Verse 2]
Don't complicate it
'Cause I know you and you know everything about me
I can't remember, yeah, all of the nights
I can't remember when you're 'round me

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been dancin' on top of cars and stumblin' out of bars
I follow you through the dark, can't get enough
You're the medicine and the pain, the tattoo inside my brain
And, baby, you know it's obvious

[Chorus]
I'm a sucker for you
Say the word and I'll go anywhere blindly
I'm a sucker for you, yeah
Any road you take, you know that you'll find me
'Cause I'm a sucker for all the subliminal things
No one knows about you, about you, about you
And you're makin' the typical me break my typical rules
It's true, I'm a sucker for you

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been dancin' on top of cars and stumblin' out of bars
I follow you through the dark, can't get enough
You're the medicine and the pain, the tattoo inside my brain
And, baby, you know it's obvious

[Chorus]
I'm a sucker for you
Say the word and I'll go anywhere blindly
I'm a sucker for you, yeah
Any road you take, you know that you'll find me
'Cause I'm a sucker for all the subliminal things
No one knows about you, about you, about you
And you're makin' the typical me break my typical rules
All the subliminal things
No one knows about you, about you, about you
And you're makin' the typical me break my typical rules
It's true, I'm a sucker for you

Halsey is the stage name of New Jersey singer Ashley Nicolette Frangipane. It is an anagram of her first name and reference to the Halsey Street subway stop and street in Brooklyn where she used to live. The bio on her website

I am Halsey. I will never be anything but honest. I write songs about sex and being sad."

Halsey was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when she was 17. This has greatly influenced her creative process from the start of her career. Songs like “Control” and “Gasoline” explicitly delve into her psychological and emotional battles. Manic, Halsey’s third album and arguably her rawest and most emotionally vulnerable, was written in a fully manic state rather than a depressive one.
