Track 12 on A Crow Left Of The Murder. It describes the insecurities of being in love with someone, comparing it to teenage romance
[Verse 1]
Met my match today
Felt the blood rushing and mingling
A curious and enigmatic thing
Now spiders in my dreams
Synchronicity weaves like a web when
You were meant to be a meal
[Chorus]
I want you bad, I want you bad
I understand why they say high school never ends
[Verse 2]
Never act my age
But you can tell by the lines in my smile
That I have been around for a while
So, insecurities
Are about as useful as trying
To put the pin back in the grenade
[Chorus]
I want you bad, I want you bad
I understand why they say high school never ends
I want you bad, I want you bad
I understand why they say high school never stops
[Interlude]
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh, yeah
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh, yeah!
[Bridge]
This isn't coincidence, there's no such thing
This isn't coincidence, no
This isn't coincidence, there's no such thing
This isn't, no
[Chorus]
I want you bad, I want you bad
I understand why they say high school never ends
I want you bad, I want you bad
I understand why they say high school never ends
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah
