“if you were mine…” she said
if the tables were turned
well, thumbs in a jar
but thank you anyway, I … just …

wanted to remember
butterflies and confusion
I want to be free again
I wouldn’t screw it up again
I wouldn’t even try…

do unto others…
ignorance is bliss…
can’t justify selfishness
two minutes at a time, I…

stir it up
drag the bottom
do you like what you see?
leave me to it
I will carry
the weight of my memory (misery)

“if you were mine…” she said
if the tables were turned
I … just …

“you’re like a drug…” she said
the high is so high
but, but tomorrow mornin’
open my eyes to new low, I … just …

want another hit
I’ll take the slap
if I can stretch it out
just once again

just want to forget
guilt and regret
I want to be free again
I wouldn’t screw it up again
can’t bring myself to cry…
