You know how women like “bad boys” because really deep down inside they have this maternal nurturing thing? And you know how when you’re with a guy and he kinda treats you like crap you keep making excuses for him like, “I feel down the stairs” or “I walked onto a truck” and people then give you funny/pity looks? And you know how it is when you defend your “knight in shining armor” to your friends and they all say “Sure, honey. Whatever you say.” but deep in their handbags, they’re already reaching for the mobiles and dialing 911? And when your “soulmate” takes in a couple of lines and smack you around a bit then squirts their own blood at a reporter you just think that it’s all shits and giggles? And sometimes your other half might want to party all night long but ends up at the other end of a suicide and he can’t even offer an good alibi? And you know when he says that he’ll be there for you all the time he sometimes forgets that “there” is in the Bahamas or some remote, romantic location where “all the time” is your wedding day?
Well, if you told me this kid was going to grow up to be that bastardly stud of a man, Id’ve never believed you.
Let me pinch your cheeks and put you in my pocket and carry you wherever I go.
