I don't wanna fall

I write this from the corner of my mind  
I'm not crazy for my words  I'm just high, drunk, feeling nice  
the walls holding me up while I watch everyone
some  are straight and some just waisted  
they cling to each other  
wanting that attention they probably don't get at home from their spouse or mom dad  
who the heck knows  
but they look needy as they pick through the crowd  
fake smiles fake corny pick up  lines  
no class in some at all  
I see a girl sucking face with some dude I know she doesn't know  
he tried his "where have you been all my life"  line on me 10 minutes ago  
I spilt my drink on his shoes and told him oops gotta go  
she can have him anyways I'm not here alone  
they are all over there dancing  
I'm sitting here writing and the page looks blurry but I can make it work  
I hope  
my date looks bored  
he thought I was fun, wild, care free  
I am  
 just don't want him to see that side of me  
not yet at least  
maybe in 8 years If he can wait  
I'm afraid he might fall if he sees me and I don't wanna fall either  
that's why I use the wall to hold me up as I write  
keeps me standing steady  
I can't lose my balance  
at least not yet  
I think I'm too drunk I refuse to bring him home with me tonight
