So who did he think I was
Just roll up and think it was that easy
Maybe we'll have some small talk
Then maybe something a little more
Damn
Things are in trouble and I'm about to jump ship
Call Ashly
She writes about it
So she must give it up for free
Wrong
The last person I gave it up to
Free of charge
And chains
Was a man I almost spent the rest of my life with
A man I might still spend
The rest of my
Life
With
Everybody else
The select few
Has had to pay
They pay with secrets
And lies
And false hopes
Of someday being half an inch closer
To happiness than they are now
Or were then
As if I could bring it
As if I'd even try
So don't call my phone
Thinking today could be your lucky day
Because you can't afford me
Trust
Me
And the only other man who will get it free
Will pay with his soul
