Oh hello... I’m sorry, come on in... I forgot -- but yes, it’s true I invited you I got high and I remembered you Always standing just a moment away... I wish you’d leave Yet I keep on calling you You’re like sugar Or maybe heroin... A drug I long for every second of the day A bitter fix For nothing in particular I guess I like the taste Of salty licorice on my lip... I’m so foolish So superficial There’s no help for silly me The answer as always Is so simple You should leave and I should let you be Do I really like the pain of nothing that can change? Walking blindly in the sand Head twisting in my hands Do I love the rush of shame? Am I truly that deranged? But is it true when you tell me All those maybes... Was I really once a pretty girl? I’m so foolish So superficial There’s no help for silly me The answer as always Is so simple You should leave and I should let you be I just love the doors I never opened Look in windows I once ran by I guess my favorite interrogatives Are what if and why Why why why Why do I need you to tell me If I’m good enough to remember? I’m so foolish So superficial There’s no help for silly me The answer as always Is so simple You should leave and I should let you be
