Lead Me Nowhere
It's months before we speak again.
But we greet like a day just passed.
I'm still trying to understand.
How you get over it so fast.
At first it's like you don't know me.
Like I'm the stranger on the street.
But then you are my friend again.
And I'm back in your passenger seat.
For a second I think you like me.
When we talk at 2AM.
But then out of the blue you sign off.
And I'm back to wondering again.
For someone whose truths are blunt.
You've made me so confused. lately.
You want me to be straightforward?
You sure do know how to get to me.
Why can't you tell me how you feel.
And save me all this trouble.
Of course you can't get around it;
Some day I'll burst that bubble.
If you like me, I like you too.
That's just the way I work.
But if you don't, boy watch yo' back.
For leading me on, you jerk.
