Let Me Inside - Stephen Lynch

Will you show me your heart?

Will you open it wide?

Expose the raw nerves

Will you let me inside?

Can you tear down the wall?

For the mortar has dried

Will you show me your heart?

Will you let me inside?

There’s not to infer

And nothing implied

I literally mean

Will you let me inside?

I am at your front door

It’s not open, I tried

It’s cold as balls out here

Let me inside

You know when it’s dark

I get terrified

Come on seriously, will you let me inside?

I think I just saw a possum

All beady-eyed

Those things fucking scare me

Please let me inside

(Let me inside)

Are you angry with me?

Are you preoccupied?

Are you taking a shit and can’t let me inside?

I can smell from the kitchen

The food that you fried

I’ve had half of a power bar

Let me inside

(Let me inside)

How can this situation be rectified?

Hey, here’s an idea, fucking let me inside

Tried to climb through your window

But I was too wide

You should get bigger windows

Or let me inside

(Let me inside)

Are you with a new guy?

That you’re trying to hide

Girl, I’m down for a threesome

Just let me inside

Ok, that’s the last straw

I’m a man, I’ve got pride

And my toesies are fweezing

Please let me inside

(Let me inside)

Will you show me your heart?

Will you open it wide?

Expose the raw nerves

Will you let me inside?

Can you tear down the wall?

For the mortar has dried

Till then I’ll be sitting here

Waiting out…
