Fallacy Man

I'm the first love
sweet and chaotic to the core
not serious when I should be
too serious when I shouldn't
I'll introduce you to holding hands
then I'll take you to fast food
I have everything wrong
at all the right times
and you know I love you to death
so you can't get rid of me so quickly
For you I try taking things slow
yet I always fall in too fast
I'm the perfect imperfect fling
and I'll be the guy you compare
future guys too
because I'm your first blunder
and I like to stick using amnesia
from when you ask,
"Why am I dating this guy?"
to forgetting troubles in a kiss
Like flirting ping-pong
I've been poison oak
this whole relationship
As our ginseng turns to ivy
you attempt to scratch me away
but then remember it causes you pain
and I just infect deeper and longer
bearing you the red reflections
those that only I see
within your heart
through those eyes
Your analgesia is fraud
and all I want for you now
is itch relief
