let me drown in your masculinity.

 

This isn’t the time, it’s not the place,

For me to play this same old race.
Baby, you don’t know what love’s about,
So don’t fill my ears with words of doubt.

Even when we touch,
Even when our lips brush,
Even when our souls in passion dive—
Baby, you’ve never known half of my drive,
Not even half of the fire inside.

Is this love? Or just the hurt?
I know the end, I've seen the dirt.
For a moment, I felt safe and whole—
In your arms, breathing in your soul.

Believe me, a liar like me,
Doesn't deserve your honesty.
Let me stay, just let me be,
Let me see the world inside of thee.

Just for a moment, stay with me,
Let me drown in your masculinity.
Let me be your woman, your fate,
In your arms, where love can wait.

You said no bad luck between us, true—
But honey, my existence is bad luck to you.
