Audrey Hepburn (feat. Whitney Ballen)

Megan, I have worn you like a blanket in the cold

Shivering on your barstool, soaked down to the bone

Breaking your attention from across a crowded room

Where you pour expensive poison for rich boys to consume

Catching every smile in the corners of your mouth

You were empty of the future, unaware of doubt

As you danced around the counter, with your lips all painted red

Threw your arms around me and got burned into my head

First time that I saw you, you were walking up my street

Hours after midnight, man, you must have been insane

To come and meet some stranger in the middle of the night

And go speeding through the darkness on the back of his bike

But we rode together in the wind, vanished in a dream

Where the nights went on forever, the last stand of something free

There was a warning you neglected to receive

From your beloved Audrey Hepburn, never love a wild thing

I was only looking for shelter from the storm

I said I couldn't stay, but then I stayed a little more

Tie me down, Delilah, just please don't cut my hair

Love is not a contract, it's a burden we share

Darren took that fifth of Wild Turkey from your shelf

Left a twenty on the table, went to party somewhere else

As I got drunk and threw up in your bathroom down the hall

Tripped and broke the mirror that was leaned against your wall

But you didn't get angry, you just laughed and shook your head

Threw back the covers and told me: Come to bed

Underneath your blankets, you were too involved to see

There were seven shards of bad luck and they all looked like me
