Darling You

A bit too young, a touch too numb
Coming up for air
With ten wars at once on the news at five
You’d do anything to feel alive
And you’re smiling…
Darling you, you’ve got to know
That I’m onto you, and
I want to feel my body on top of you
And get used, if only for
The view from above
You’re stupid high, in the back of my
Idling, sidetracked mind
Chewing foil between your teeth
Skipping school to screw in your backseat
Girl that prayer won’t get you much
But on your knees to feel the touch
Darling you, you’ve got to know
That I lied to you
When I said someday I could die for you
When we knew that we’d both
Die for anything
She said
«Johnny come lately
You can’t save me.»
So, who can save your bad behavior?
Who can save our bad behavior?
Darling you, you’ve got to know that I lied to you
When I said someday I would die for you
When we knew that we’d both
Die for anything
