Babe, it's no surprise you showed up now
You always love to kick me when I'm down
It's half past twelve o'clock at night, and I'm frozen between fight or flight
I always seem to do this when you come around
He says, "Are you sure you don't want to come with me?
You've hardly slept since you turned 23"
I say, "I know you think you're offering more, but I wanna live to see 24
And with that you will just have to make your peace"
Didn't I tell you to leave?
You think you have your foot in the door
Just 'cause I almost gave in once before
Talk to me again, you'll be ignored
He stared at me through my window once before
And I don't even live on the ground floor
I know he was trying to scare me
But I kinda liked being seen
A far cry from the loneliness I'd known before
Didn't I tell you I'm done?
At your euphemism, I was stunned
Don't get it in your head that you've won
But maybe just this once...
