When I tell you to pay attention don’t you turn and face the wall
What’s needed next requires you to come give me your all
The t-shirt that you’re wearing reminds me of regret
The lighter you possess holds a story we can’t forget
Sally made it clear when she wrote it on the wall
The one that tells of Lisa and of his greatest flaw
She told me the whole truth, typed it all out on her phone
The point was her intention and she drove it to my home
The dreams that I’ve been dreaming were never dreams at all
They gave me frame of reference but not a home to call
And left me lost, on notice, for the one we can’t resist
Under your bed, monsters prepared and clenched their fists
Get ready
The story grew bleaker the longer I sat in wait
My room teamed with gory, real nightmares on my plate
I couldn’t stop the heaving while her breathing had no rate
Her fire ripped straight through my soul, and left me tastefully irate
He swore he didn’t notice tears streaming down on her face
He knew he’d have another who’d come and take her place
The fire raged and burned for days and days and days
Through the smoke & ash she wormed her way out of his maze
Straight into my arms she ran away from his guilt
For once in her life she felt betrayed by his kill
And left him only with her name rolling off his dirty lips
I kissed her, he sank, she swallowed a pill
The dreams that I was dreaming, came true in the end
They gave me frame of reference and a home in a new trend
And left me lost, on notice for the one I can’t resist
She shares my nights in comfort and I come with little risk
Oh don’t you know
