Incubus Tattoo

They say you’ve got a big brain
I swear you use it just for evil thoughts
They say you’ve got a big heart
Like I didn’t know you back at the start
When we were nothing
But we were praying for an audience
Before I’d written those songs
Before you feigned my influence
Sixteen months to clear your head
And make things right
Still you’re laying in your bed
Eighteen hours a day
And you don’t know why
How do you do it
How do you make me feel bad for you
So let me ask you a question
Are you staying true
Have you done half the cool things
We promised at fifteen we’d do
Or did you gain too much traction
Did you grow up and then grow through
My existence and our incubus tattoos
You took me like a vitamin
And redefined my past
I didn’t realize that I was dealing
With a megalomaniac
I waited for a certain shade of green
But now I’m back
To heed you a warning
That this morning view has passed
So let me ask you a question
Since you’re not staying true
And haven’t done half the cool things
We promised at fifteen we’d do
Since you gained too much traction
Since you grew up and then grew through
Do you hate me for getting my incubus tattoo
I think we’re better off
Acquaintances than counterparts
