SHE WANTED TO KNOW ME AND I SWORE I COULDN’T TAKE IT, I WANTED TO TELL HER GO AWAY, SHE WANTED TO KNOW MY MIND AND NOT MY BODY AND IT MADE ME FEEL SICK I WANTED TO TELL HER TO **** ME AND THAT I AM USED TO FEELING DISGUSTING I WANTED TO TELL HER TO LIE TO ME SHE HAD TO STOP BECAUSE I WAS JUST A GIRL AND SHE WAS GOD AND SHE PUT EVERY SINGLE STAR IN THE SKY ONE BY ONE WITH HER BARE FINGERS
SHE WANTED TO KNOW ME SHE SAID WHAT DO YOU DO WHAT DO YOU LISTEN TO WHAT DO YOU EAT IN OTHER WORDS ARE YOU BORING I SAID I’D DISAPPOINT SHE SAID *******
IF SHE WANTED TO KNOW I’D TELL HER IT’S BEEN MONTHS SINCE I’VE SEEN MY FATHER BUT IT’S BEEN YEARS SINCE I’VE SEEN MY DAD AND THE LAST TIME WAS THE VERY LAST WARM DAY IN FALL 2010 WHEN I LOST HIM TO ANOTHER WOMAN AND I’VE BEEN COLD EVER SINCE
ABOUT HOW BACK IN 2013 I’D BEEN CONVINCED I FOUND HIM REINCARNATED UNTIL I LEARNED I’D LOSE EVERY MAN I WILL EVER LOVE TO OTHER WOMEN AND THAT WAS THE DAY THE HOME WRECKED BECAME THE HOME WRECKER I AM LONELY BUT I DON’T REMEMBER THE LAST NIGHT I’VE BEEN ALONE I’VE CREATED MY OWN DEFINITION OF FILLING THE VOID I HAVE A JAR OF HEARTS HIDDEN UNDER MY BED AMONG THE COUNTLESS EMPTY BOTTLES
IF SHE ASKED I WOULD’VE TOLD HER I WANT TO MARRY IN THE AUTUMN IN HOPES TIME WON’T BE FROZEN ANYMORE AND HOW I ONLY SLEEP ON THE ROAD AND IN HOTEL BEDS AND WHEN I DREAM I DREAM OF COMING HOME
SHE WANTED TO KNOW ME AND SHE ASKED MY FAVOURITE COLOUR AND I TOLD HER IT WAS RED LIKE THE COLOUR OF HER HAIR AND YELLOW LIKE WHAT SHE WAS WEARING THAT DAY I THOUGHT I SAW HER IN THE SUMMER

SHE WANTED TO KNOW ME I SAID DO YOU REALLY - j
