After Midnight
Took her home one night after midnight. Told her I would take her anywhere.
Told her I would take her anywhere, but I’d never love her. Told her I’d take her picture, but I could never see her beauty. Told her I wanted all of her and none of her all at once. Told her I could fuck her, but I’d never hold her.
She poured herself a drink, and I told her I couldn’t let her drink alone.
Told her she could follow me down, but I’d never pull her down with me. Told her I was empty. Told her I was lost. Told her I was alone. Told her I was using her to fill a void. Told her I was sorry.
Told her I would rip her apart if she stayed.
She pulled her head up from waist and told me,
“Baby I don’t care.”
