You brought it up jokingly, thought it wouldn’t hurt
It was just an aside, nothing big
I guess you don’t know why and what it meant
It’s just a hole you’ll continue to dig

I laughed it off cause that’s what I do
I could tell that you were relieved
I sat there, mind buzzing, going insane
You were fine because you were freed

Free to flirt and not feel pain
Free to act stupid and not seem insane
Free to not ruin your so-called plans
Free to make a 3rd of a crush your man

Of course there’s jealousy, I found him first
Obviously we didn’t get involved
I still wonder about that moment and shame
It’s called respect until his problems are solved

They say. . .
Lets set her up, lets play a game
Were getting our fix
Everything’s the same

Oh she’ll be fine
It’s nothing new
We’ll take them all
And leave her a few

It’s not a game anymore; I’m starting to want
Why is that so hard to conceive?
It’s not so much of an aside my friend, it’s now becoming a need.
