well, King Midas put his hands on me again
he said one day I'd realise why I don't have any friends
I find myself alone at night unless I'm having sex
but he can make me golden if I just showed some respectbut I don't let him touch me anymore
I said, "I'm not something to butter up and taste when you get bored"
'cause I have spent too many nights on dirty bathroom floors
to find some peace and quiet right behind a wooden doorhe said, "please don't go away"
he said, "please don't go away"
I said, "it's too late"
I said, "it's too late"and now I can't stop thinking that
I can't stop thinking that I almost gave you everything
and now the whole thing's finished and I can't stop wishing that I never gave you anythingyou wrote a hundred letters just for me
and I find them in my closet in the pockets of my jeans
now I'm constantly reminded of the time I was nineteen
every single one's forgotten in a laundromat machine
