Cuffed is a story about Nick’s (presumably) first love, who helped awaken his sexuality and taught him to enjoy acts of selflessness.
[Refrain]
It's been years since you came around these parts of my mind
All I can recall is you restin' naked every time
You handcuffed yourself to your mother's bed that one night
You left the front door unlocked waiting for me to arrive home
[Chorus 1]
I learned all about lust
Dominatrix, always thinking about myself
I used to wonder what I'd do without you
[Verse]
It's been years now and you embrace all my vices without shame
It's a beautiful world
The hips and levers tie me up in your room
I am grateful I found a lover, a queen
That shines right through the gloom
It's a beautiful world
The hips and levers tied me up in your room
[Chorus 2]
She taught me to make love
With patience
Not just thinkin' about myself
[Verse 2]
You really feel the other person
Oh my lover
What will I do without you?
And I wonder
What I'd do without you
[Bridge]
The woman that taught me love
Lays in front of me every morning
[Refrain]
It's been years since you came around to these parts of my mind
All I can recall is you restin' naked every time
You handcuffed to yourself to your mother's bed that one night
You left the front door unlocked waiting for me to arrive
