you want
to keep
us a hush
because
you don't
want anyone
to know that
you're with me
you make it
pretty clear
when you
cunningly
follow me
like a shadow
so much alive
but not noticed
you're careful
when you're
with me
in case i might
blow up
but i don't
let my feelings
out because
i know
i will
lose you
if i did
i'm frightened
without you
because in
some wicked
way you make
me feel loved,
in some sick
way i feel happy,
in a sinners way
you make me
feel alive
the truth is
that i'm an
object to
you,
i'm just someone
who you can come
to and look for my
attention
and i'm
always dumb
enough to
give it
to you
i'm so dumb
to want you
i'm so dumb
to accept you
i'm so dumb
that i can't
let you go
you say
we're just
lovers
passing our
time,
i wish i
could call
you mine
you won't
make the
first move
then
i'd have
to prove
what you
really mean
to me
still, i know
you'll leave
me alone
and how
can i be
a lover
without
your love?
