Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me,
There's something going wrong around here....
-Joe Jackson
An oldie but goodie....
Reminds me of this girl I work with...her BF is such a total waste of breath, and she stays there, hoping against hope that someday he will love her the way she loves him. Shes stood by him through sickness, health, and all the things that true love does. Meanwhile, he knows that in a few short weeks, he's moving away, clear across the country and hes not taking her with.
She knows it too.
But still she clings to this dream that he'll wake up and see her for the wonderful person shes trying to be for him.
Meanwhile, the rest of us, on the outside looking in, we know shes going to get crushed. Its like when you know you're going to crash your bike as a kid, you see the fall coming, you can't avoid it, and all you can think is, "Aw fuck....this is gonna hurt like hell..."
Is it any wonder I avoid love like the fucking plague it is?
