like i care if i can never own a home 
what's the point if i have to live in it alone 
like i care about the mess i'd leave behind 
i've been so [bad word] careful my whole life 

just this one time i will leave 
and not spend most of the night worrying 
about how i am going to get home 
just this one time i will be 
someone you want to take out to things 
and not who you take everything out on 

like i care what other places i could go 
i'm not even curious to know 
like i'm scared about the likelihood of pain 
pain has been like family to me 

just this one time i will leave 
and not spend all day at work wondering 
if you will still be there when i get home 
so just this one time can you please 
act like you [bad word] away with me 
and not like i'm the thing [bad word] from?
