Overthinkin' It

I shouldn't be here, I know it's getting late
I know I shouldn't follow you
I know that there shouldn't be a debate in my head
But I couldn't be caught dead
Taking somebody else's path instead of my own

I don't even ask, he doesn't know
Has anybody been here before?
Oh, turn the key and lock that door
I know I'm overthinking it

I oughta get back home, it's cold and I don't have a scarf
Do you think he'll feel the cool of my skin?
Will he cut to the eyes of the heart?
Oh, I don't wanna face him now, should I wait 'til he's asleep?
Could I stay with you just a little while
While the cool of your hand pulls me deep in the sheets with

No control?
With no dominion over myself
Oh, plastic tags, I'm on the shelf
I know I shouldn't be seen like this

I've seen you before, I know you take what you can get
I know the taste of your fruit is so sweet
But the shame is far too hard to forget
With such a crooked crutch
I'm just limping on a broken heel
Pretending like I don't see a snake
Like I can fix what I break when I'm barely awake

I know I've done it
Let me go, I've got it through
I've finally brought it to
A place in my control with my little eyes

So why the cries of wrong and right?
The wise will die, so why do you fight?
Why waste your time when comfort lies
Give gratification when you need it?
The heart cries and I feed it

So why am I still over my head?
I have got no sense of gravity
Lyin' in my bed, lost in this depravity
Oh, has anybody been here before?
Oh, does anyone else long for more?

My throat is dry, I thirst and I cry
The bulls surround, mouths open wide
My bones can be counted, my heart melts inside
My God, my God, why?
Why have you forsaken me?
