Adam and Eve

[Verse 1]

Tonight you stoop to my level

I'm your mangy little whore

Now you're trying to find your underwear

And your socks and then the door

And you're trying to find a reason

Why you have to leave

I know it's cause you think you're Adam

And you think I'm Eve

[Verse 2]

When you rhapsodize about beauty

My eyes glaze

Everything I love is ugly

I mean really, you would be amazed

And just do me a favor

It's the least that you can do

Just don't treat me like I am

Something that happened to you

[Chorus]

I am

I am

I am truly sorry about all this

[Verse 3]

And you plot a tiny pin prick

In my big red balloon

As I slowly start to exhale

It's when you leave the room

And I did not design this game

I did not name the stakes

I just happen to like apples

And I am not afraid of snakes

[Chorus]

I am

I am

I am truly sorry about all this

I envy you

And your ignorance

I hear that it's bliss, bliss, bliss

[Verse 4]

So I let go the ratio

Things said to things heard

As I leave you to your garden

And the beauty you prefer

I wonder whether this will have meaning

For you, when you've left it all behind

I think I'll even wonder

If you meant it at the time
