i like her, but i wish i didn't..
There's something about the darkness
Where the shadows loom
And something about your wandering fingers
When everyone leaves the room
You have this way of tricking me
And I have a way of believing you

Chorus:
Last night I met this side of you
That forgot her clothes
But I was still wearing mine
I was still covering the holes
(Repeat a few times)

You squirmed in the janitors closet
And when I opened the door
The back bone of my skeleton
Fell out on to the floor
And I wish you never held me
The way you did
And I wish I never felt as comfortable to give in

Chorus 2:
But last night I met this side of you
That forgot her clothes
But I was still wearing mine
I was trying to patch all the holes
(Repeat a few times)

cos I’ve squandered time
submerged in muddy waters
as the dumb little daughter
of the women who knows best
and i've learned nothing
where i couldnt see
the maggots eating away at my chest

and you are the mirage that shimmers in the distance
with some kind of majestic hope
yeah your the guy
who beat me to the water
and drank all he could
then poured sand into the hole.

Yeah I wish you never held me
I wish you never gave me that look
Cos it gave us a new line of possibilities
and dumb little me bit on to that hook
And I really wish you wouldnt rub up against me
But I really wish you would
Cos I’m a liar
And I really like you
But I don’t think I should.

Chorus 3:
Cos last night I met this side of you
That forgot your clothes
But I was still wearing mine
I sewed all the holes
But I was still wearing mine
Wish I could rip these holes
But I was still wearin mine
wish I could rip these holes
Wish I could rip these holes
these dumb little holes...
