Trip Me Up

They call me the odd

You're the author of that name

I like you a lot

But I hate you just the same

I smile and take it on the chin

Could answer your backstab

With a little face slap

But bite my tongue 'til it bleeds

Trip me up

I know you'd like to see me fall

Just like I hope you will do

I know it feels hard

For your sensible heart

I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake

I push you over

You know I like you more from far

Won't drown in the middle with you

It's sad but true

I'd rather risk losing you

I comb your hair

Braid it into a thick rope

Add a red and white rose

Swirl it neatly 'round my throat

You see I took it on the chin

But gathered every sharp word within

Trip me up

I know you'd like to see me fall

Just like I hope you will do

I know it feels hard

For your sensible heart

I push you over

You know I like you more from far

Won't drown in the middle with you

It's sad but true

I'd rather lose you

Trip me up

I know you'd like to see me fall

Just like I hope you will do

I know it feels hard

For your sensible heart

I push you over

You know I like you more from far

Won't drown in the middle with you

It's sad but true

I'd rather lose you
