Inmates - The Good Life

When you said you loved me

Did you really love me

Did the words just spill out

Like drool on my pillow

'Cause I was naked when you said those words

But I felt covered in your whispered worship

And as you pass out fast on my shoulder

I imagine a child

Waiting so sad and still for his mom to arrive

Did she leave you an orphan

In that big brown leather chair

Said don't you move a muscle kid

I'll be back in twenty years

You were scared you were lonely

But you must have been aware

Life is a series of callouses

This is just another layer

So build them up tough it out

Yeah that's your skin

Don't let anyone under there

When you said you needed me

Did you really need me

Or was it just someone

Oh you'd take anything

Am I first on that list of yours

Or am I second or third

So who's that ahead of me some harlot from Pittsburgh

Or Detroit Santa Fe or San Diego

I know you're so alone

But how much affection does one guy really need

Did you date a lot in high school

Were you always chasing girls

Couldn't you find some young valentine

To steal your heart for good

Were you content or contemptible

Are your memories pleasant

Or is it a string of endless flings

Of bitter resentment

Seems that what you want and what you need doesn't mean a thing

We're just here for the taking

When you said you'd hurt me

Did you think you'd hurt me

Are you really that cocky

Yeah what a heartbreaker

Well I've got my armor

Yeah I've been through some battles before

And I met your old girlfriend

She said baby don't bother

She told me you told her you'd hurt her

Funny how familiar

So how much of this relationship was rehearsed

Did you act out as a child

Were you always crying wolf

Attention starved you tried too hard

Just to get someone to look

Now you're the wolf in secondhand clothing

I'm the sheep in a pleated skirt

It's an awkward form of payback

But if it works for you it works

It's that I recognize you're off white lies

Still I lie beside you

And that's what really hurts

When you said you'd leave me

Why haven't you left me

What are we still doing here

So desperate for company

There's a greyhound on Jackson Street

There's an airport in Council Bluffs

Hell there's a car in the driveway

Fifty ways to get lost

But as I hold you and listen to you sleeping

I'm starting to wonder

If I really believe that you'll ever really leave

Would you leave me an orphan

In your big brown leather chair

The one you lugged around

From town to town for all these years

It's a trophy of your childhood

Like a shark tooth or gator skin boots

But this one holds you prisoner

It holds me prisoner too

What we need to set us free

Is to let go of each other

Let go of everything

When I said I loved you

It was because I loved you

When I said I needed you

Well I really need you

Yeah I guess you hurt me

For once you're a man of your word

Well guess what I'm leaving

I can't be your prisoner

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner

I can't do it I won't do it

I can't be your prisoner

I can't do it oh no I won't do it

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner oh no

I can't be your prisoner
