he rang tonite
and my heart was pounding in my ears
because whenever he calls
he leaves me in a state of panic and anticipation
and why I fall for it everytime
I'll never know (perhaps its because he still has a piece of me)

but I decided I didn't want to be the novelty
even if it was just for a nite
and I didn't want to wake up tomorrow morning
with a bloody hangover, much to my chagrin
and I just didn't want to cover bruises with bandaids
because bandaids just don't cut it anymore
