Norman Bates

Were you like Thomas Barrow on Downton Abbey, did you have a big secret to keep? I know you were like Mr. Carson, never dated until you found me.

You were a family man like Clark Griswold, cute like Virgin River’s Doctor Cameron or like Preacher, I wish we’d had a romance like Doctor Mullins and Hope, where we would always make up later on.

Like Martin Henderson talking with an American accent one minute then back to Australian the next, you talked the Christian talk and you walked the Christian walk one minute, then you left it alone like a debt, to pay, am I insane, like Anthony Perkins on a Psycho filming day, did you ever really love me, or did you think I was Norman Bates?

We could have had fun like we were on Star Trek, you’d be Scotty, Chekov, Spock’s dad or Captain Pike, or like Ghostbusters you could have been the Venkman to my Dana, or the Tully to my Melnitz every night.

But I must have made a very wrong impression, like I brought you into a parlor and creeped you out, but you suggested things that made me angry and sad, to each other we both tagged along.

Like Crosby Braverman wild and free irresponsible one minute then a family man the next, you talked the Christian talk and you walked the Christian walk one minute, then you left it alone like a debt, to pay, am I insane, like Anthony Perkins on a Psycho filming day, did you ever really love me, or did you think I was Norman Bates?

I swear I wasn’t out to get you, I swear I wasn’t insane, I swear I didn’t hate your family, or only date you for fame, cuz I am not a Psycho, even though some may say so, I was just a girl in love and emotional pain, looking back though I can see where people may have likened me to Norman Bates.

Like Marion Crane a thief of my heart but in the end we crossed the line and our relationship died, you talked the Christian talk and you walked the Christian walk one minute, then you left it alone like a debt, to pay, am I insane, like Anthony Perkins on a Psycho filming day, did you ever really love me, or did you think I was Norman Bates?
