The night is blinding.
I’m feeling eyes on my shoulder.
Am I not as enticing,
now that I’m a little older?
I looked the same back then.
Just not as switched on.
Does it make you uneasy,
now that my innocence has gone?
I never sent you an invite.
Our wires always parallel.
But you took it upon yourself,
To pick me up when I fell.
You didn’t drive me to the hospital,
After I hit my head.
No you didn’t tuck me in,
At least not into my own bed.
This is not my bed.
No, this is not my bed.
I thought about it once.
And I thought about it twice, in the same day,
And when I thought about it for the third time,
I said well, that’s it, and I’m done,
And cut, copy, run it, I’m done, I’m done, I’m done.
And I saw it on the phone, at four it in the morning.
And I sure got the call in, before it even came.
‘Cause I read it in the paper, just the other day.
And how my mind tracked it back and I went straight back to that park.
(You’re just having fun, and I’m the irresponsible one…)
And I could check just where you are, I’ve got it on my G.P.S.
You’re just having fun, and I’m the irresponsible one.
