Escapista.

i am an american aquarium drinker
i assassin down the avenue
i’m running out in the big city blinking
what was i thinking when i let go of you?
let’s forget about the tongue-tied lightning
let’s undress just like cross-eyed strangers
this is not a joke so please stop smiling
what was i thinking when i said it didn’t hurt?
i want to glide through those brown eyes dreaming
take from the inside, lady gold on tight
you so right when you said i been drinking
what was i thinking when we said goodnight?
i want to hold you in the bible-black pre-dawn
you’re quite a quiet domino, bury me not
take off your bandaid because i don’t believe in touchdowns
what was i thinking when we said hello?
i always thought that if i held you tightly
you’d always love me like you did back then
then i fell asleep & the city kept blinking
what was i thinking when i let you back in?
i am trying to break your heart
i am trying to break your heart
used to be lying when i said it wasn’t easy
i am trying to break your heart
disposable dixie cup drinking
i assassin down the avenue
i’m running out in the big city blinking
what was i thinking when i let go of you?
loves you
i'm who loves you.
