Status quo
"Status quo,” those words ring in my ears
"Status quo,” those words echoed in my loins.
I had no choice but to agree
And yet indeed, I disagreed
I know I can’t, I wish I could,
Could break that thing, that status quo.
You want to stay "in the state of things" that was before.
Before I told you that I wanted you
Because I told you, "I want you."
Before I told you
I don’t want to go back to "before."
I want us to go to "after."
After I show you, I want you
After you show me you want me too.
You want us to go back to the way we were before.
It’s too late for me; I’ve gone too far
It’s too soon for you, I’ve gone too far.
"Status quo" I hate these words
I hate you too for telling them
I hate me even more, for agreeing to them
I didn’t put up a fight then, I won’t put up a fight now.
"Status quo,” I need to get to the status quo.
"Status quo,” I will comply with the status quo.
But I’ll despise myself for that
I do not want that status quo.
