Kill the lights, turn out the sun
I don't want to know what I've done.
Or who I've done it with.
I was wild,
Broke out my cage.
The beast was on the loose I am afraid to say.
The shark was in the water smelling for blood, what did it find?
A pretty little body with sedated smiling eyes.
Did we stray too far from shore? I'm not sure it matters anymore.
You're not her,
And if anyone asks, you're not here.
You're a private mistake I made, and now I need you to disappear.
If anyone asks, we never met.
You haven't seen me at my weakest and I haven't tasted your sweat.
If anyone cares, I'm no one you recognise.
You don't lay down for anyone, and you damn sure didn't for me last night.
In case
Of emergency
All I need is deniability
And an airtight alibi.
But right now I'd appreciate
A little more time
To wash her off my body
And to get her off my mind.
This heart of mine has been compromised.
By the thrill of the hunt, and taking whatever I can find.
If anyone asks, I'm no one you know.
You didn't wrap yourself around me and I didn't let myself go.
If anyone cares, we're two perfect strangers.
Because you're sure not the girl I love, and I know the way this ends up.
Each bottle becomes a page.
Every empty glass translates into a slurred turn of phrase.
I drowned all the ifs and trod on all the cigarette butts.
They say don't drink and drive but tonight I could give a flying fuck.
I'm behind the wheel and I'm cruising
The lights are off but I'm home and I'm not alone.
This is a torture of my own choosing.
Each day it's a rack, but each night it becomes a throne.
this ones about getting drunk and fucking someone for the wrong reasons.
