about

Sexual temptation. Being in a committed relationship is wonderful, but everybody has those “what if” fantasies. But this also touches on the fact that following through with any of those fantasies would be the biggest mistake of my life.

lyrics

(I’m) falling apart to keep myself in line. The clock ticks on as I’m just losing time.
I’ll throw in the towel to keep me satisfied.
We’ll take our halves and we’ll force them to comply; if only for just one night.
Cause I am barely breathing. The animals are in control.
I’ve arrived at this tree bearing fruit and I’m starving for food,
but we’ll all regret the consequence.
(I’m) slipping away in comfort and routine. So where is the dirt? I’m feeling way to clean.
Well I’ve been okay with living in my dreams
cause when I wake I’ve got everything I need; if only for just one night.
So let’s celebrate before I deflate, and burn the evidence.
We’ll enjoy the wake with a cheap embrace,
(and) then fall in denial. And we can’t take it back.
