2 1/2

I never wanted kids
But if you asked
I'd give you two and a half
Wanna let you live
But if it'd make you laugh
I'd give you two and a half

What if I met you in college
knowing what I know now?
Would you want me?
Would you call me over every night, spit me out?
Fumble in a denim jacket,
Long as time allows
Stumble drunken into darkened dorm rooms
Jesus Christ, I see it now
I know it's depressing, but I need to think it's true
Spend half my time trying to make you like me
And the rest ashamed I do

But I give myself away, give myself away
Throw me a line, what could I say?
Wanna let you live, but if it'd make you laugh
I'd give you two and a half

It's embarrassing, the shit I'd let you do to me
I've been running from something dark since puberty
I know you feel it
Whenever you're near me
But I lie
And I stall
And I do what I do til I think I've got the gall
Til you want me
Til you like me

What if I met you in college?
What if I met you tomorrow?
What if I met you in five years?
What if I met you, and the smoke that's been covering my eyes clears?
What if I met you, when I know a little more?
When I learn how to love somebody without waiting by the door,
and without needing it so bad?
Without needing it so bad?
What if I met you in college?
What if I met you in college?
