I know it sounds weird
|
I do want you to look back on this and smile but
|
I kinda want that smile to be through tears
|
|
I ain't shouting at ya
|
I'm shouting to ya
|
Hallo darkness my old friend
|
let's turn you in to filthy lucre
|
And suture wounds and tumours
|
with dark humor mixed with hubris
|
In lieu of future suitors
|
with a blast of nasty rumours
|
|
Seems the light at the end of the tunnel was a fire
|
?Now I'm choking on the smoke in my lungs, I'm so tired
|
?But I can't go to sleep with a mind that's so wired
|
You call that shit depression - I call it inspired
|
Talk is cheap when you speak the weak prose you're throwing
|
You're just a sheep in a wolf-in-sheep's-clothing's clothing
|
?And the holes ain't closing, just exposing goatskin
|
This corrosion shows you can't control the motion
|
Shit, the romance is dead? Blame the hopeless romantics
|
Resigned to hopelessness their romantic plans with sycophantics
|
So I won't put the nice things we do on YouTube
|
Don't need the world the world to love me - I just need you to
|
|
The world don't revolve around you but it should
|
I ain't saying you're perfect, but you're really really good
|
Ain't saying I love ya but I probably could
|
?Have!
|
|
The world don't revolve around you but it should
|
I ain't saying you're perfect, but you're really really good
|
Ain't saying I love ya but I probably could
|
?Have!
|
|
I thought it was love but I was wrong
|
Tortured a dove just to prove Prince wrong - I love that song
|
?I guess you broke my heart but it kinda needed breaking
|
?And the grating exasperatings hating's already dissipating
|
"Love..it's a weird thing ain't it?" You're fucking right it is
|
?Enlightened by the disquiet sight, I kinda like this shit
|
We fall in love with that which we project on each other
|
Then settle for reality or just reject one another
|
?So I respect the motherfucker that reflects upon their lover
|
And then lets them walk away or resurrects and recovers
|
Way more than I respect those that just close up the shutters
|
And ignore the shitty shell within which both of them suffers
|
I wore my heart on my sleeve and you stole my fucking shirt
|
?But go ahead and wear that shit - happiness of the absurd
|
These words divert the hurt and send me soundly to sleep
|
?But every word I wrote I meant so fucking read 'em and weep ?
|
|
The world don't revolve around you but it should
|
I ain't saying you're perfect, but you're really really good
|
Ain't saying I love ya but I probably could
|
?Have!
|
|
The world don't revolve around you but it should
|
I ain't saying you're perfect, but you're really really good
|
Ain't saying I love ya but I probably could
|
?Have!
