You tipped me off
You knew you had
If you hooked me up to a polygraph
I'd never pull off all this nonchalance
Should we walk
Or take a cab
I'm playing dumb like I always have
That same old kid that don't know what he wants
Let's turn all this nervous
Talk into lip service
I'm a risk but I'm yours for the taking
It's a kiss for our own myth making
Even though my hands are shaking
And you're staring at your shoes
Who'd've thought
A sentiment
As big as this room's elephant
Could disappear with summer and tan lines
We could stop
Development
But when we're in our element
We go together like a slant rhyme
We turn all this nervous
Talk into lip service
I'm a risk but I'm yours for the taking
It's a kiss for our own myth making
Even though my hands are shaking
And you're staring at your shoes
Please accept this fortune
These hard-earned endorphins
There's nothing more important
Than the trouble we get into
When all we ever wanted
Was to take this for a spin
And be forever haunted
By the things that should have been
I haven't learned a lesson
From planning obsolescence
Have you
You tipped me off
You knew you had
If you hooked me up to a polygraph
I'd never pull off all this nonchalance
I'm a risk but I'm yours for the taking
It's a kiss for our own myth making
Even though my hands are shaking
And you're staring at your shoes
Please accept this fortune
These hard-earned endorphins
There's nothing more important
Than the trouble we get into
