self-care (interlude) Lyrics

Said she'll love me on the side

She wants me there tonight

Don't want a part of this

But I can't resist her kiss

I talk to her in the park

I talk to her on the phone

She wants to meet after dark

Why can't she leave me alone

Is this what I deserve

How dare she have the nerve

But it's easier for me to say

I just saw her yesterday

Her silk voice in my ears

It's still ripe in my mind

Her lips so soft and fierce

I wish I could call her mine

But is that something I should wish for?

Will I end up crying on the dance floor?

If you treat him like you do

How can I know you won't do it to me too?

Is stopping this an option?

Can I with precaution?

Don't wanna leave you on the shelf

But I need to take care of myself
