Matthew

I've been avoiding writing about you
But, how are you Matthew?
You felt a little like Vegas
So I went put all my money on you

Not black or white
And the red wine stained
I wish I knew back then
It was a lose lose game
And you were so drunk on pain

What next? No we can't play
Naked chess under the duvet
Too many mistakes
Like on the fire escape
When you hung yourself over the edge
Screaming 'Do you love me yet?'

What next? I guess we both just
Forget it all
I was so afraid on the fire escape
When you hung yourself over the edge
Screaming 'Do you love me yet?'

Not yet

I've been avoiding talking about you
Cause I could kill you Matthew
We spoke to God in the bathroom
And she tried to warn me about you
You spoke over her
Charmed her with your pretty eyes
And we would both forgive you
But its not like you ever apologised
For all the lies

What next? No we can't play
Naked chess under the duvet
Too many mistakes
Like on the fire escape
When you hung yourself over the edge
Screaming 'Do you love me yet?'

What next? I guess we both just
Forget it all
I was so afraid on the fire escape
When you hung yourself over the edge
Screaming 'Do you love me yet?'

And I didn't think I was strong enough
Holding all your weight
Hanging off the 15th floor
I swore my arms would break
And I didn't even know you like that
It was like our fourth date
Standing with your life in my hands
I knew you were insane
You were insane

What next? No we can't play
Naked chess for old times' sake
You were insane
On the fire escape
When you hung yourself over the edge
Screaming 'Do you love me yet?'

What next? I guess we both just
Forget it all
I was so afraid on the fire escape
Please don't hang over the edge
I don't think I love you yet
