Don't Get Me Wrong

You look so well

In your online profile

Young, healthy, vibrant, new

With everything happening

All of the time

I see the sun is shining on you

You're doing so much

Liking all the right things

With so and so

And such and such

I message you

You messaged me back

We arranged

Then I met you

On a real street

In a real town

I met the real street you

And over a flat white

And detox tea talk

You told me the same thing

That I'd read online

And I looked in your eyes

As you recited your part

And for one moment I saw past

And into your room

Don't get me wrong

Don't get me wrong

Don't get me wrong

I don't want to lose friends

But past your eyes

Into those rooms

I saw another you there

In the corner, half hiding

Half watching me

As we watched each other

I could hear your voice

Listing all of your plans

And you in the corner

Started waving your hands

As if to say no, no

In response to your words

More desperate waving

Like you were diving

Drowning, drowning

Back out of your eyes

Away from those rooms

Away from that you

Back to yourself

You said what's next for you

What's next for you

I said I'm not sure

I have no definite plans

I'll let you know

How can I reach you?

Don't get me wrong

How can I reach you?

I don't want to lose friends

You look so well

In your online profile

Young, healthy, vibrant, new

With everything happening

All of the time

The sun there is shining

You're doing so much

Liking all the right things

With so and so

And such and such

Don't get me wrong

Don't get me wrong

Don't get me wrong

Don't get me wrong
