I'm not tired yet We still got a lot to figure out Like what was the end of the movie about, anyways? You're yawning on your couch I wonder if I overstayed my welcome Until you asked me if I'd like to take a walk We're going to the five and dime The only open place at this time of night You're dancing in the aisle 'cause the radio Is singing you a song you know And the kid at the counter is gawking at your grace I can tell what he's thinking by the look on his face It's not his fault, I'm sure I look the same It's what you do but it's not you I blame
Your mama read my palm She wouldn't tell me what it was she saw But after that, you weren't allowed to spend the night I'm staring at my hands Red, ruddy skin, I don't understand How did they betray me? What did I do? I never touched you how I wanted to What can I say to your mom to let you come outside? You know I'll be seeking if you run and hide If the door were to open, would you walk through the frame? If you're too afraid, it won't be you I blame
You passed a note in class Told me to meet you at the overpass Your lip was trembling when you said that we are cursed You're trying not to cry When you tell me you're afraid that we may die I said "So what? Everybody's scared of that" I want you to tell me that you miss me Want you to hold and hurt and kiss me I wanna run away and live on your family's boat It's a triple dog dare, you're a chicken if you don't I can fish for our food and you know how to start a flame If you don't get out now you'll only have yourself to blame
You said, "You have me there If it's a triple dog dare" A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare A triple dog dare
They put our faces on the milk jugs Missing children 'til they gave up Your mama was right, and through the grief Can't fight the feeling of relief Nothing worse could happen now Nothing worse could happen now Nothing worse could happen now
