The Racket

Did you see the byline?
He's got it out for me
The only press I ever get
Says I'm on my own worst enemy
He writes, and I quote
Is it still a racket if you lose it all?
Is he still electric with the lights turned off?
Are you really one of us?
Tied me to the bed frame
Pressed play and locked the doors on me
The only sex I ever get is with my own facsimile
He said in my voice
How you gonna lose what you never had at all?
Nothing's still electric
And the lights turned on
I screamed
Am I really one of you?
Am I really one of you?
Are you really one of us?
Walked in on a younger me
He's looking up to me
The only thing I thought to say
I tried and tried to drink away
I said and I quote
I don't know what I'm doing and I never did at all
I'm scared of the dark
Then the lights turned on
They said
You were always one of us
You were always one of us
If you wanna be
I guess you're not watching
Good ball game, down 3-2
And they knocked out your classmate
In the seventh inning
3 to 2 so heck of a game
Hope to see you when we get to Coronado
Take care, love you, bye
