Messed Up

Pass by me Her footsteps whisper Pour coffee Black it talks Stir the spoon Heated walks Sit down stare here her cry Just another man A man am I? Ground the finger on the table Peel myself another label Jerk Dick Just cause I kissed this random stranger Now the hospital is full And she's the doctor with my prescription but I wanted try the new flu shot And now I'm sick, and my insurance stocked Comes on in On red eye junction Hard to see her Hard to function Want to talk but only listen Stare on down My coffee vision Swirling black Says to stand up Be army strong Be army tough But in the end that numbers sad Loneliest... I've played that band And now I sit behind her back Wondering how much longer before she acts Please forgive me Let's just pass this one up And then she stirs But then she walks... Man I really messed this up...
