Oh baby, baby please I feel an urgent need to apologize I did a terrible thing in a terrible dream And now I can't look you in the eye
It started: We were out on a date And you turned to say, "I gotta tell you something odd I know I said we'd get married But I'm already married" And that's when you laughed so hard
So I turned and swung Woke up in a shock Nails digging blood from the base of my palms
Because people are so fickle They fall in love at different angles So really I could lose you just as quickly as I've gotten you And that's the kind of thought that makes me nervous And worried if you'll really think I'm worth it When the rush wears off and you're left with this busted person But if you tell me you will I will do wht I can to believe it
So baby all the things that I've seen Last night while asleep This morning, they're messing with me And now I'm anxious as hell And looking for help Something pleasant and painless Some story to tell With a throughline of calm That could stop me from being myself
'Cause all I think is how I wanna be your fever Just to know I make you heated 'Cause I worry you might see me more like a blanket Who's there for comfort and for cover From the glare of former lovers All that passion that kissed you and bit you 'til you were devoured And I'd like to get better 'cause thinking like this is torture
And if I can't stop it you'll get sick of bearing crosses And you'll jump to cut your losses You'll go get quarantined somewhere far from me Where it's much less dangerous But maybe if I wake up and quit dreaming I can shake and shit I'm fearing And I can realize I'm just freaking out for no good reason I'll tell you what: If that's a line I can cross, once I get there, I'm not ever leaving
