I've been meaning to tell you That you were in another reoccurring dream of mine I've been meaning to ask you Have we met or are you just a figment of my mind? The more I waste my time Thinking about the words I shouldn't write And knowing all too well I'll take the bait She's leaving X's and O's by her name I can't explain this attraction I swear to you it only happens when I close my eyes Never a big fan of fiction Think I'm converting just to serve this fantasy of mine No ink in my last pen You've dried it out with run-on sentences She's writing now with dark lipstick instead Engraving X's and O's in my head And she's got a red dress on in the act It should blend well with the bleeding The bandages are heart-shaped just like that Imaginary wound I'm treating I'm only trying to help you understand Where I'm coming from, no one else can So follow me until my shadow ends And may the sun never go down again And honestly, the more I waste my time Thinking about the words I shouldn't write Knowing all too well I'll take the bait She's leaving X's and O's by her name
