Hey babe, it’s me, boy blue
been searching around town for a girl like you
You wrung me out dry, left me to die
Flashin’ that smile ever so sly

Hey babe, it’s me, boy blue
been searching around town for a girl like you
I’ve wasted my time, ditched my mind
gave it all up to get back the grind

Hey babe, it’s me, boy blue
been searching around town for a girl like you
I wanna ask you questions, ask you why
but all you can give me is a cry

Hey babe, it’s me, boy blue
been searching around town for a girl like you
Rip me open, what do you find?
a sorry sap who’s busy being blind

Hey babe, it’s me, boy blue
been searching around town for a girl like you
I’ve had this anger, just let it brew
Baby, find someone new to *****

I know what it’s like when a soul dies
For a Sunday night surprise tainted my pair of heart eyes
On my bed sprawled a man and sweet Clementine
She met his lips with ones that were formerly known as mine

In shock, I hastily began a procedure vaguely resembling a seizure
My mind’s eye saw how I was confused and misused
So quickly came the chill, putting the warm parts of my heart to disuse
A darker side of psyche was ruefully deployed
I turned empty, a void, bona fide schizoid

My fingers now around their throats, I became Death’s harbinger
Love-borne vengeance made corporeal, a cheater’s swan singer
I caught their eyes with mine, bloodred from scornful blame
Turns out souls and bones break quite the same

Me and some friends got high and took a night out on the town
Ducking between seedy spots and screeching cars,
we saw **** like talking dogs and bears in wedding gowns,
sipped down galaxies and chugged cups of stars

They pass around powdered sin, taking a sniff
I’m in the corner, blasting away the clock with guitar riffs
They howl, “buddy, grow some *****”
The Devil tells me to give into their calls

My eyelids randomly decide to droop
My muscles give out and the whole world seems to stoop
Booming speakers submerge my cries
so I simply watch my friends drop like flies

Every pained breath whispers the stench of sweat
I touch my ravaged nose
It’s red and wet
That’s how the story goes

What can I say?
It’s my game to play
Even the purest need a break
I’ll **** up my life for fun’s sake

Touching every ethereal speck, their vision was unwavering
Eyes piercing through imaginary chambers of the brain
Past a feathery dreamscape
Into an explosion of unwavering reality

You look but do not see
You laugh yet are never truly free
Your tears are surreptitious yet speak loudly
You are shy and wear this introvertism proudly
You say “I’m fine” while collapsing into a pile
You experience ceaseless agony with ever a smile

You look but do not see
**The complexity that is me

Smile.

All you have to do is smile
So simple
So easy
When you feel sorrow
Grin away the pain
When the world seems like it’s ending
Let out a bitter chuckle
Just allow that smile to shine
It doesn’t have to be real
Let out a fake smile if that’s what you want
Smirk at the bad things in life
Sneer at the people who try to bring you down
Beam at the ones who make you feel loved
Laugh even if it doesn’t make sense
Laugh because that’s what you want to do
Laugh because you just don’t give a ****
"Grin and laugh"

The trees are monsters
The shadows are spectral
The electricity belongs to Wisps
The sun is a Great Dragon’s egg
The moss is Troll skin
The wind is Banshee breath

The girl is a victim for the forest to tear
**and I am her swift, merciful death
