I lie in my journal when I write about you
Black and white words that poke fun at the truth
Hide my heart for safe keeping I won’t take a chance
I always say ‘no’ when you ask me to dance
I always remember the day that we met
Opium eyes that smiled and pulled me into your net
Blinding me so bright that I couldn’t see
The dark strange places where you were leading me
And now you’re going to give me
Another piece of your mind
Another ideology
That I can’t abide
I know you like it when I flirt and tease
And I could write a whole book of apologies
I hope you don’t think that I’m leading you on
Just having fun pretending that we’re still young
Let’s keep this as it is
My demon divine
We’ll drive each other crazy
If we cross the line
Don’t wanna say it
Can’t make me say it
Not gonna say it
But I do
