what i am is what you see
4:09 am & I can't sleep. The east coast has got me going crazy.
All of the things you've failed to mention linger on my mind.
Stale cigarette smoke in pretty blonde hair.
No matter how hard I try I can't keep away from you.
My body craves the pain, the lies, the excuses.
You are like poisen in my veins & I am addicted to the injections.
Addicted to the bittersweet moments when I let you in & everything's alright.
You've been my one & only. I'm just another notch.
& you've proved that by the "mistake" you made.
Or should I say "mistakes."
But, here I am. Your doormat.
Be sure to get all of the old dirt off of your shoes
& rub it in real good, sweetheart.
It's starting to lose it's freshness.
So, let's wrap up together real tight, because we all know
How quickly things get sour between us.
We're forcing it.
We always run back to eachother.
So, let's just look at things the way they are.
I'm selfish & you couldn't be honest if your life depended on it.
