then came Jane

everybody got a jane

drunk beautiful dangerous to know

a fuckable slut

& then came you

obviously not my type

hanging on being the one

i could trust in

say the thing to & mean it

force myself into being

the better man

standing up straight

meaning what i say

yesterday & today

reliable if still hazy

around the edges

wanting the slipping back

into those dangerous days

my little crowd

didn’t like it one bit

wanting me back into

my old ways & haze

me being more pliable

easier to ride
