Twenty-Points (The Ballad of Sexual Dependency) Lyrics

I thought of you, did you think of me
I guess we'll wind up running down your street
Twenty points for me

I see that bandage lying under your sheets
I see that blood, it's running down your cheek
Twenty points for me

Twenty points on top of me
Take your points away from me
Take your points away from me
Take your points away from me
Take your points away from me

Well I hurt you, so you hurt me
I count them up, all you were plain to see
It's twenty more for me

I take from you, you take from me
You plant that garden and you toss that seed
It's twenty points for me

Twenty points on top of me
Twenty points, why can't you see
If you can't take them honestly
Then take your points away from me
Take your points away from me
Take your points away from me
Take your points away from me
Take your points away from me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Chris seems to be writing and singing about the problems within a relationship, and the compromises one has to make to make it work. Beautiful song on an underrated album
