I don't know you
But I remember you
That day I ran into you-
I didn't know what I was doing
But I'm glad I did
I barely knew you three days
and we made out on a street corner
Our first kiss
But it felt right
Like I'd known you a thousand years
The movie sucked
We almost fucked
Right there in that alley
But that fucking phone
Ruined out night
We spent the night together the other night
We've known each other for how long?
I started it
I know
Little virgin boy fucked up
But we shouldn't let this end
Jail bait
I'm jail bait
Cradle robber
You're a cradle robber
Fuckbuddies
You were fuckbuddies
Angry
She's angry
It's not my fault?
Let's start this slow
Public Places
With friends
Like your roommate
Like him
Like him?
Did you like him?
You saved him
You looked out for him
How come you never said anything
It's an act. Ain't it?
I mean… you really are a sweet guy
… you just like to use your fists
You made time to watch me compete
My friends met you
My best friend
She gave you the "make me happy" speech
I got hurt
You broke the rules to watch over me
And then
That asshole said a few harsh words
Only words
And you were at his throat
I wouldn't let you
Break his bones
Thanks for the thought
But I'd rather you be on this side of the glass
-With me-
Someone close to me
Made me think
Do I love you?
Do I even like you?
Then why isn't it that simple?
And then you kissed me
-It was a question-
-It was an answer-
Had I not been injured
We both know what would have happened
What is this?
-this-
I may have ruined a moment
But it needs to be asked
Where does everything leave us?
A pretty good place.
-Do I love you-
…I just might
I couldn't sleep
But you tried to make me
I couldn't
I went for something
-water-
You followed me
and made me talk
Did you always know it was me?
Two in the morning
Heavy questions aren't a good idea
Goodnight
Those memories that never happened
Do they really mean anything?
We're together
Isn't that enough?
I never could remember them
And now I do
and it's tearing me apart
Can I bring it up?
I can't now
Not with your roommate here
and he's been gone an hour
and I still can't ask
But you dragged it out of me
and then you kissed me
and suddenly it didn't matter
At least…
-That's what I told myself-
My brother almost caught us together
We weren't going anything
but still…
He's with a girl
And it's weird
Our family was pretty…
Pretty fucked
And my dad was an asshole
My brother took me away
But he let someone get away
Oh god!
You met him
You met my brother
I was pretty sure I was going to
die
vomit
have a heart attack
He suggested staying the hell away from me
You wouldn't
and you stayed
My birthday
We're alone
Just us
alone
Can I?
You seem apprehensive
I guess not
"Will you?"
I smiled
I really know how to get
Under your skin
I had another dream
I can't explain it
but I am nobody
I am nothing
I was nobody
I was nothing
I woke up in your arms
You pulled me closer
and I fell back asleep
It fell apart
the last time
I don't know what happened
but I remember
you faded
and I couldn't help
I couldn't do anything
and it killed me
because…
Because I could feel
I needed to talk
To you
So I let myself in
and I was horrified
-nobody-
You lied.
We pretended
That it meant something
I hit you
You held me
Confrontation
Conversation
Confession
You think I'd leave?
You think I'd leave?
You think I'd leave?
I won't leave
I won't leave
I won't leave
I can't leave
Because
I care
"Are you guys okay?"
I don't know
a whole week went by
before I called you
-Circles-
And there we were
At the graveyard
You're arm around my shoulder
for the first time
in a week
Time to meet your mom
I had no idea
We never talked about your parents
-Story time-
Can I wrap myself around you?
Things were bad for you guys
-Snap-
She was your mom
And your friend
your roommate
would leave his window open for you
It was that bad
This time is different
because
I care
And then
That car
In a sad, sick way, I was glad
glad that I didn't have to watch
This time
And then you were there
arms around me
holding me tight
for the last time
I felt nothing
and then
I felt everything
You
I had to hold onto you
I called your name
-Once-
-Twice-
-Three times-
-four-
And you were alive
-This was the last time-
No way we could do this all over again
I held you
and as the ambulance came closer
I held you tighter
We lived
concussions
cracked ribs
and shattered legs
We lived
So please
Kiss me
Let's stop running
