Fingertips

Squeeze

You infiltrate my every hour 
You bug me like a flea 
I only wish I had the power 
To cut you free of me 
Like some crustacean on my hull 
You stick with me and make life dull 
How can I make you see 
I'm in love with you 
You typify the things to me 
That I no longer do 
So get a grip and let me be 
And my life will improve 
Leave me alone, get off my case 
You're always there right in my face 
But that is nothing new 
I'm so in love with you 

It's funny how I loved you like 
The bottle at my lips 
And when I fell off of my bike 
My life had been eclipsed 
By all the grief and disbelief there at your finger 
At your fingertips 

You hoover up the very words 
I choose to throw away 
I know some people never learn 
So how can I complain 
You hiss at me and make me shake 
Like some old grumpy rattlesnake 
Let's think this through again 
I'm so in love with you
