Taylor Swift’s ‘Patient Zero’ Lyrics<\/h3>\n
Who might know about the devil on his shoulder under his halo<\/em>
When the toxins take their hold<\/em>
You’d rather die than let it go<\/em>
But if you\u2019re sick of him, I got you<\/em>
I was patient zero<\/em><\/p>\n
I’ve been expecting your call<\/em>
No, it\u2019s not a bad time at all<\/em>
I heard somebody saying there’s trouble in paradise<\/em>
And my lips are sealed tight now<\/em>
It’s not for me to tell someone else what to do<\/em><\/p>\n
Who might know about the devil on his shoulder under his halo<\/em>
When the toxins take their hold<\/em>
You’d rather die than let it go<\/em>
But if you’re sick of him, I got you<\/em>
I was patient zero<\/em><\/p>\n
I bet he even said ‘I love you’ first<\/em>
And when you saw another woman coming out of his place<\/em>
I bet he kissed the rain off your face<\/em>
Now he seems bored by you<\/em>
And you don’t know what to do<\/em><\/p>\n
Who might know about the devil on his shoulder under his halo<\/em>
When the toxins take their hold<\/em>
You\u2019d rather die than let it go<\/em>
But if you\u2019re sick of him, I got you<\/em>
I was patient zero (I was patient)<\/em>
I was patient zero<\/em><\/p>\n
I know he charmed your family and friends<\/em>
And you thought it\u2019s ’cause he loves you<\/em>
But it’s ’cause he loves how everybody else loves him (Uh-huh)<\/em>
I know it seems like he shines so bright<\/em>
But he\u2019s bathing in your reflected light<\/em>
On a free solo social climb (Uh-huh)<\/em>
Take it from somebody who lost his games but won the race<\/em>
Take it from someone who said all of this to his face<\/em>
Someone who knows she’s more than just the chase<\/em>
Someone who had him and walked away<\/em>
And so<\/em><\/p>\n
Who might know about the devil on his shoulder under his halo<\/em>
When the toxins take their hold<\/em>
You’d rather die than let it go<\/em>
But if you’re sick of him, I got you<\/em>
I was patient zero<\/em><\/p>\n
Felt the reeling, done the healing, said the curses and prayers<\/em>
When the fever turns a dreamer into a pathetic ghost<\/em>
If he’s killing you, I see you<\/em>
I was patient zero<\/em><\/p>\nLyrics to Every Song on Taylor Swift’s ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ Album<\/h2>\n
