what was i thinking
that you were thinking
when you told me how much she cared about that boy outside
forget what you should be
go halfway and meet me
i'll be your constant, your reminder how to fly from nine to five

let's make the other bed she'd sleep in
recount the plastic stars taped to his ceiling
may they all fall down
the list goes on and on and on and on
of words that you wrote down
the list goes on and on and on and on of lies you'd take back now

what were you thinking
that i was thinking
when you told me how badly she wants you to decide
between lifeless and sweetly
or lose her completely
and i can't imagine how it felt to let that slide and die inside
