Secondhand Affection

I hope you’re heartless because then at least there would be some consolation

Each of your breaths is just a space in desolation

 

But smile for me baby

I need a little romance,

Dance with me, swing with me?

Love doesn’t deserve a chance!

Not when it’s so hopeless.

 

I really hope your blind because then I wouldn’t feel so disgusting

And every loving look well it wouldn’t mean a thing.

 

Come in a little closer.

I need a little time.

Wrap around a poser,

Because tonight is just a dime

In a world of quarters.
