"I, Tom"
It's one too many nights spent outside alone.
Again and again you've handed me mine.
It's one too many times you set my ass on fire.
And I, Tom solemnly swear this is the last time.
It's one too many times I've taken the fall.
You draw me on in, drop the dime.
Lost in a sea of broom-strikes
and thick, black legs.
And I, Tom solemnly swear this is the last time!
This bullshit's gone on long enough!
This ebb and flow will die like all things do.
From the very first time that I saw you,
I wanted to eat you.
You're the reason I wake up in the morn'.
You're the reason I cry the night through.
You're the reason everyone knows my name.
I've always wanted to eat you.
It's one too many nights spent outside alone.
Again and again you've handed me mine.
It's one too many times you set my ass on fire.
And I, Tom solemnly swear this is the last time!
This bullshit might go on forever!
Or until we die like all things do.
No wonder from the very first time
that I saw you,
I wanted to eat you.
You're the reason I know now I shouldn't.
You're the reason I feel like I do.
You're the reason everyone knows my name.
I always knew that I'd need you.
Trust me.
(I need this.)
Trust me.
(I need this.)
More than you could know.
Oh, what a beautiful relationship we have.
Some might call it loving.
Sometimes I wish that's all it was,
but it's incessant, primal urge.
Call me lucky.
I couldn't live without a scratch,
but I would die without the itch.
Now I know...
You make me whole.
