mister, i must say you're sinister
how can you act this way?
you see, i don't trust you
every time you ask to stay
i move a little closer
& you run away
i stand in the dark
i stand alone
when i can finally see
you throw me a bone
& i follow...
you're the puppeteer master
danglin' me by the strings
yes, you move me to the left
lift me to the right
cut me out
& downplay my role in your life
who or what will be the knife
to save me from your indecision?
no, you don't listen
i trust you as much as i trust myself
to be okay with elephants in the room
the same as hoping, nearly knowing
the buried feelings
someone else's thrusts could exhume
but i'm not here to hurt you
i said i'm not here to hurt you
no, i won't
i will not hurt you
because i know what it feels like now
every time you come around
not knowing when you'll go
only that you will
my body is still
because nothing moves me now
i say it won't but it will
back to you
are we there yet?
are we there yet?
absolute disconnect
as you reply,
darlin' we're going nowhere
we're not together
only tangled in a knot
it will undo
i promise you
it's not that i'm not ready
i don't want to be with you
i'll take what i can get
until someone claims you
writes you off
& taints you
have you had enough?
not yet
not yet
absolute disconnect
darlin' i must say
you're only temporary
& so damn easy to give away
