Attached To You

I know my mom

She'd make you your favorite dish

She'd be obsessed with you quick, like on night one

She'd welcome you in our home

Like you were one of her own, give you that East Coast love

That's why I keep her at a bird's eye view

So she doesn't get attached to you

And I know my dad

He'd say he's tempted to grill you

If you hurt me, he'd kill you, but he's not like that

You'd probably bond over Springsteen

And how much you both love me and vintage Cadillacs

That's why I keep him at a bird's eye view

So he doesn't get attached to you

Come to think of it, I think I saw the end

You didn't get a chance to choose

There I go again, making up a bad excuse

So I don't get attached to you, to you

Attached to you, to you

I know my friends

They'd talk conspiracy theories

You'd know more of them weirdly, you would pass their tests

They'd see how you keep me safe

And show up for me in ways that they could never imagine

That's why I keep 'em at a bird's eye view

So they don't get attached to you

Come to think of it, I think I saw the end

You didn't get a chance to choose

There I go again, making up a bad excuse

So I don't get attached to you, to you

Attached to you, to you

I'd rather walk on glass

Than give someone the opportunity to hurt me

I'd run like hell and sabotage a good thing

'Cause I'm so fuckin' afraid it could be perfect

I'd rather walk on glass

Than give someone the opportunity to hurt me

I'd run like hell and sabotage a good thing

'Cause I'm so fuckin' afraid it could be perfect

I know myself
