She sleeps thru Monday mornings
Like I slept through all the warnings
That we’re not a match
She thinks my friends are boring
So I dropped them while out touring
Cuz she such a catch
Every time she stays the night
I get a semblance of a life
And we both know
That we’re nothing on our own
I fucked up my life for you
No well laid plan no longer view
Other than
Trying to be your man
And you fucked up your life for me
Threw away everything
Don’t think I can
Ever understand
Why we’re not meant to be
I guess I’ll wait around to see
My sister calls each evening
Asking me why I’m not leaving
Says I’m codependent
I don’t defend it
They can’t capture my attention
In this family interventions
It’s getting so redundant
So I go absent
But each time I try shit on my own
The fear of missing her brings me back home
Cuz we both know
That we’re nothing on our own
And I fucked up my life for you
No well laid plans no longer view
Other than
Trying to be your man
And you fucked up your life for me
Threw away everything
Don’t think I can
Ever understand
Why we’re not meant to be
I guess I’ll wait till
My parole officer starts calling
And this fucking bank teller is stalling
And my ankle bracelet won’t stop its incessant beep
She pulls the stocking off of my face
As the whole swat team surrounds the place
But she tells me it’s ok
That we’re back in bed still fast asleep
Just how Monday mornings ought to be
Now our families both reject us
Cuz were serving a life sentence
Now I see
That you fucked up your life for you
Serving hard time for two
I hope you understand
This was not the plan
Cuz I fucked up my life for me
No chances of early release
Don’t think I can
Ever be with you again
Unless you cop a plea
I guess I’ll wait around to see
