Clockwork

Swore I'd never do this again
Think that I'm so clever I could date a friend
He just called me, said he's running late
Like me, he probably had to regurgitate

I know it's irrational, at least I'm self-aware
I'm shivering, maybe I'll stay home
"Oh shit, he's here!"

My head's a wild place, I've considered every way
Words I'll forget, deeply regret, he'll run away
And nothing brings me fear like meeting with my destiny
But like clockwork, think he fell in love with me

Now we're drinking, caught in fight-or-flight
I think I might be loving this romantic night
Damn, he's smiling, staring back at me
We're at the arcade, think it's going perfectly

I know I'm dramatic, but I caved in at his touch
I want him forever, oh, my God, I've said too much

My head's a wild place, I've considered every way
Words I'll forget, deeply regret, I'll run away
And nothing brings me fear like meeting with my destiny

But good God, I think he fell in love
Ticktock, and I fell in love too
Like clockwork, I fell in love with you
