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 our own, give you that East Coast love (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 (Cadillacs)

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

So he doesn't get attached to you

But come to think of it, I think I saw the end

You didn't get a chance to choose, there I go again

Makin' 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

But come to think of it, I think I saw the end

You didn't get a chance to choose, there I go again

Makin' 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
