10. illicit affairs [Hiphopde.com]

[00:17.39] Make sure nobody sees you leave

[00:21.39] Hood over your head, keep your eyes down

[00:25.39] Tell your friends you're out for a run

[00:29.14] You’ll be flushed when you return

[00:33.39] Take the road less traveled by

[00:37.38] Tell yourself you can always stop

[00:41.64] What started in beautiful rooms

[00:45.40] Ends with meetings in parking lots

[00:48.15] And that's the thing about illicit affairs

[00:51.13] And clandestine meetings and longing stares

[00:55.39] It's born from just one single glance

[00:59.14] But it dies and it dies and it dies

[01:02.64] A million little times

[01:13.39] Leave the perfume on the shelf

[01:17.39] That you picked out just for him

[01:21.39] So you leave no trace behind

[01:25.41] Like you don’t even exist

[01:29.38] Take the words for what they are

[01:33.65] A dwindling, mercurial high

[01:37.62] A drug that only worked

[01:41.63] The first few hundred times

[01:44.14] And that's the thing about illicit affairs

[01:47.16] And clandestine meetings and stolen stares

[01:51.40] They show their truth one single time

[01:54.87] But they lie and they lie and they lie

[01:58.64] A million little times

[02:06.64] And you wanna scream

[02:07.88] Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"

[02:11.88] Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me

[02:15.87] You showed me colors you know I can't see with anyone else

[02:23.89] Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"

[02:27.92] Look at this idiotic fool that you made me

[02:31.64] You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else

[02:39.39] And you know damn well

[02:42.90] For you, I would ruin myself

[02:46.66] A million little times
