[Verse 1: Dave]
Look
They say the universe, it works in a strange way
And it must be true because
We ain't from the same background or same place
But me and Lesley ended up on that same train
I'm talkin' every day
I used to wake up around seven or eight
To catch the 9:06 from Norbury Station
Two different worlds in the same location and
One day, we ended up speakin'
And I would talk about college, she would talk about meetings
And how she's plannin' on leavin'
How she hates what she does, but she needs it
I asked her what she would do when it's the weekend
And she said, she said
[Chorus: Dave & Ruelle]
"I don't know myself
I don't know myself no more"
[Verse 2: Dave]
She used to be the life of the party for true
And now she goin' out hardly ever
Her man got her in the yard forever
And her friends wanna help, but it's hard to tell her
Hard to let her know that her man's possessive and aggressive
And she can't even see it, but for them, it's clear as day she's in a situation
Her friend Hannah had a man that was manipulative
So she could see it from a mile off
Turtleneck jumpers, makeup around the eye spots
All the signs were there
But Lesley made it seem a light affair
Said it wasn't right to share
Her boyfriend, he was a mystery man
I didn't know much about him, but he's been in the can
Name's Jason, he's a bad boy with no reasonin'
To be honest, I don't know what Les sees in him
'Cause she's a good girl with a sweet heart
But they've both got demons and a deep past
You know opposites attract, apparently
I never heard her talk about her family ever, uh-uh
He was all that she had
Until they had an argument and he stopped callin' her back
And I don't know if there was more to the story than that
'Cause she plays things down, but according to that
He went missin' one day, in the mornin', he ran
She's doin' overtime, strugglin' affordin' the flat
'Til she lost her job, it fucked all of her plans
Couldn't pay the rent, borrowin' and callin' for cash
But Hannah, she was there for her, cared for her
When I saw Les, she told me
