i can't

by antwan fields - Aries

you want me to go home with you
i can't 
you need money for your habit
i won't
you want to go out with chico and raul
i don't
and all i ask is for you to be honest and curl up with me
you won't 
i sigh in frustration because you just wont quit 
hurting me intentionally 
i wan't a life! you shout
and i want one too, i shout back
but yours is crazy 
and mine was just fucked up
its a surprise i haven't killed myself
a big one 
to me any way 
and youll find out any day
if you have gotten your own way
yes, let's take pictures of ourselves in happier days
us at six flags, us at coney island
us giggling at the staff pukes just a-filing
we laughed that day
ou last day of fun
and i did find out 
the hard way
now we sit here
gazing at each other in combat 
neither one bending 
finally you relent
can't we go out with the boys tonight
but i just roll my eyes
and say what has become my mantra 
i can't...
