I never liked the color pink
It was too cheery for my taste
Yet here I had that flamingo drink
Not a drip or drop to waste

She wore it on her clothes
It was the color of her lips
It was shaded in her drugs
And on her fingertips
It was in the lights when she danced
And on the pole it grew
It was in her words when she glanced
Now I was pinkish too

They say one wears the brightest stars
When feeling like the moon
So many times I dreamed to ask
Yet it always seemed too soon

I could tell she guested hell
And filled it with pink glitter
I crushed it all with fairy gold
Not wanting to be bitter
I could tell that she was scared
But pride wouldn’t let her speak
She wouldn’t have her pink heart bared
Just left that in turned cheeks

She said, “Baby, let go,” with a wink
And that was when I knew
She was very pink
And I was very blue

You won’t notice him as much at first
You might not notice him at all
But since he’s not the first to creep
You’ll be the one to crawl

2.
His kisses may surprise you
As you thought he seemed so shy
But you know better, darling
Look at his glimmering eyes

3.
He will explore you like an art museum
And your paint will start to drip
And yes, he knows how to make you shiver
With the fire in his lips

4.
He knows exactly what to say
To get a laugh or a cry
Sometimes he uses mismatched words
And you’ll start to wonder why

5.
He is now the last to kiss you
So brave as he says farewell
He doesn’t love for long, honey
I’m sorry you couldn’t tell

I think I killed somebody
But you can’t tell anybody
It was just one simple body
A soul of a nobody

I had hands that ached to be claws
And feet that dreamed to be saws
I had eyes that sharpened into arrows
And lips that sharpened into blades
I had a tongue that was very splintered
And hair of thickened rope

It was the brain that leaked its poison
It was the ******* from which one drank
It was the heart that made one numb
But it was the thighs that slit its neck

I didn’t mean to do it
Yet I just heard a secret
It pounded at the bones in me
My skin couldn’t keep it
I never knew before then
What was thicker than blood

I think I killed somebody
But you can’t tell anybody
It was just one simple body
A soul of a nobody
