Not Allowed Lyrics

inside the lights that are shining
and glowing in our faces
thought i saw a better judgment
the better times, the better places
this really shouldn't happen
i always forget i'm not allowed to touch you, yeah

the bedsheets are an ocean
that hide polluted water
there are tons of ammunition
they could use if they caught us
this really shouldn't happen without an excuse
i'm not allowed to use what's already in use

but people are as people as people do
and messy people are me and you
and we are sailing off on tangents
straight into a storm
they say this shouldn't happen
but nature must seize
i'm not allowed to start a war where there is peace

but i want you underneath me
holding on to my shoulder
and i am calling out my territory
with a bullet in my heart
cause this really shouldn't happen
at anyone's expense
i'm not allowed to question hard evidence

you're not allowed to sit there
and make me feel embarrassed
for saying everything i do
i know you can't say you love me
and back off when i do
cause you never asked me to
