Not Allowed

Inside the lights that are shining and glowing in our faces
That assault our better judgment of better times and better places
This really shouldn't happen I always forget
I'm not allowed to touch you yet

The bedsheets are an ocean
That hide polluted water
There are tons of ammunition they could use if they caught us
This really shouldn't happen without an excuse
I'm not allowed to use what's already in use

But people are as people do
And these two people are me and you
We are sailing off on tangents
Straight into a storm
They say this shouldn't happen, that nature must cease
I'm not allowed to start war where there is peace

But I want you underneath me
Holding onto my shoulders
I am carving out my territory with a
Bullet in my heart
'cause this really shouldn't happen at anyone's expense
I'm not allowed to question hard evidence

But you're not allowed to sit there and
Make me feel embarrassed
For sayin' everything I do
You know you can't say "love me"
And then back off when I do
Because you never asked me to
