Getting close to me is like watching a train wreck and loving me is like hugging the train
Sacrificing yourself for a nobody with a sarcastic smile on her face laughing at the trembling in your legs
I can't keep making decisions for everyone but myself but you're being too nice to me
I know you're soft and I've got fangs
My joints are dislocated and overgrown
And all my nerves and veins are wrapping themselves up in coils the second I hear your name
When you touch me I yank myself away
Soft limbs harden
I've got serpents in my stomach that are just itching themselves to climb up my esophagus and bite off your tongue
Just to say I told you not to put your lips so close to mine
I don't bother easily
Even when your teeth are digging into me I still want to laugh at the fact that you're shaking your legs but it's been a heat stroke inducing kinda day
I know you could've never guessed why I kept an arms distance between you and I at nearly all times
I'm making up excuses just to make sure you don't stay
Because the truth is that it's not yours to know
I'm sorry that I'm always driving the get away car and leaving you at the crime scene
But you never robbed a bank, it's just the only way I can think of to keep you safe
I'm not going to stick around and make you keep swallowing all the lumps in your throat
They weren't supposed to be there and I don't know why you keep pushing them back down because you know every single time I hear the sounds you make
I'm not going to take you with me because you don't deserve the accessory to robbery label that would get pinned to your chest
