Keeper

There is a tiny Detective Scully in my head
"Trust no one; don't even trust yourself," she says
"I know you're desperate to believe
There's no betrayal up her sleeve
But love's not out there, so you're never going to find it."

There is a tiny Mr. Spock inside my head
"Feel nothing; Love isn't logical," he says
"How prosperously you could live
If learn to take and never give
Love is so human; you'd be better off without it."

There's a devil on my shoulder
Who shovels sand onto my fire
And when I tell you how I feel
The bastard tells me I'm a liar
But when I listen a little deeper
Deeper
Somebody tells me you're a keeper

There is a tiny Gaius Baltar in my head
"Don't be so maudlin; be Machiavellian!" he says
"Unless you're truly paranoid,
You're guaranteed to be destroyed
So we all say, and we can't all be mistaken."

All these devils on my shoulder
Whispering into my ear
And every time you say you love me
They're the loudest thing I hear
But if I listen even deeper / Deeper
Somebody tells me you're a keeper
