I will gladly take you as my lawfully wedded wife.
To have and to hold, while I slowly destroy your life.
From this day forward, when you're feeling at your worst, I will lie to make it seem better
I promise I will be the one to sign your resignation from the world letter.
This sickness inside my soul will continue to deteriorate your health.
The days I bring you to your knees is how I'll count my wealth.

Till death do us apart,
I swear to poison your heart.

She smells like every birthday candle I ever wasted my breath on,
And taste like every shooting star I ever made a wish upon

Watching wildflowers grow in the cracks of sidewalks will always remind me of when I told you that you could be loved, but you didn’t believe me then.

Now look at us, living proof that just because someone has a crumbling past,
doesn't mean you can’t build a beautiful future that will last.

— The End —
