lyrics

I am not easy to reign in
but it’s hard to ignore you
when I’m touching your skin
but I shouldn’t have come here tonight
the voice in my head tells me it’s not right
Don’t threaten me with spending the night
Just leave. Just leave
My mind keeps telling me, just leave
Trust me I’m no better at this myself

My bed’s been empty for months on end
you’re quite the opposite I can tell
And anyway I’m destined
to the life of a philosopher
A messy bed, a mind apart
and dying alone with a cross on my heart
Just leave, I am begging just let me go
Just leave. Trust me
I’m much better off on my own

But your blocking the door so to speak
seducing me with distraction after distraction
I can’t ignore what I feel inside
but you know this is unorthodox attraction
I need to, I want to be alone. Please let me go
Trust me I’m better off alone

Yours will be an easy life
mine will be nothing at all
You’ll have kids and a pretty wife
leave that ring in that box
Save your sentiments like your money
I’ve come way too far

Listen I am wrong for you
Listen this is wrong for me
Listen I am wrong for you
Listen this is wrong for me yeah
Listen I am wrong for you
And listen this is wrong for me
Just leave. Just leave
Trust me, I’m better off alone
We’re better off
Just leave
