Stupid me
I don't know why I keep waiting
Why I keep wishing
For something I can never have

Stupid me
I don't know why I even want you
Why I even like you
You're mostly really bad

Stupid me
I don't know why I'm called to you
Why I even care like I do
This burden is such a drag

Stupid me
For thinking I have a chance
With someone who's incapable of love
With someone like you

Stupid me
For thinking you'd even consider
Dating someone like me
Someone who's off limits

Stupid you
For not realizing
That I'm your soul mate
That I'm the one you want

Stupid you
For letting me slip by
For making me want you
As much as I do

Stupid you
For being exactly what I want
And exactly what I need
And making me feel
Full of greed
For something I can't have
And never will

Stupid

I'm so in love with this girl
And I know she loves me too
But sometimes she doesn't
And I'm like, "What did I do?"

It's so **** confusing
I've gotten used to it now
So I just give her space
Unsure of what she'll allow

I want to talk like normal
When we're loving and flirty
She really is everything
Sometimes even a little *****

The perfect combination
Of wisdom and beauty
But she plays hard to get
Winning her is my duty

However,
I definitely got her
Kind of right where I want her
Because at the end of the day
I'm on her mind
Without me, the world's a blur
She's in love with me
And I'm in love with her

The love of my life is special,
She’s beautiful and appealing,
I am quite addicted,
She’s really got me reeling,
I never would have predicted.

The love of my life is vulnerable,
She’s easily hurt,
And easily saddened,
Her mind often lurks,
And ends up maddened.

The love of my life is funny,
She starves for attention,
Yet cherishes her privacy,
Almost like a different dimension,
Oh, the irony.

The love of my life belongs to me,
We read each other’s mind,
We have a special bond,
She’s truly one of a kind,
Struck me with her wand.

The love of my life is perfect,
She may not realize,
Quite the effect she has,
But one day all those lies,
Will hopefully come to pass.

The love of my life is beautiful,
When I think about her,
And her pretty face,
I sit and often wonder,
Just how wonderful is her grace.

I take a **** and my worries go up in smoke
It doesn't matter how horrible I feel
Or how damaged I have become
I take a hit, and the **** doesn't seem real.

It calms me
Rids me of my anxiety
I can relax
I can free my mind
Of all the clutter
That belongs in the gutter

Wake and bake
That's just how I do it
Ain't nothing to be ashamed of
Now I'm feeling lit

I'm higher than a kite
Up in the blue sky
It's beautiful up here
So happy I could die

I self medicate
No, I'm not a druggie
It educates my mind
No way life can be ugly

They ask me,
"Wanna smoke?"
I respond,
"You know it,
Then we blow it,
Eyes to show it."

There's this boy I know
He's a particular fellow
He's mentally unstable
And even trips over the table

But he's funny and witty
Kind and sweet
You feel for him not pity
But only pure love

He's compassionate and deep
Hot, with many layers
Like a tea that sits to steep
Warm and comforting

He looks at you with those eyes
And you are compelled to worship
The ground he walks on
And accept the beautiful lies
That make up your relationship

We are forbidden lovers
No one can know how we feel
When we're under the covers
We keep it between us
Like kids sharing candy
On a yellow school bus

But what we have is much sweeter than candy
Much more than just dandy
What we have is rare
What we feel is care
What we have is between us
Only we can bare
We love each other
There is not another

No one can take your place, my love
For you are my only one
My one truth

They say God works in mysterious ways
Sometimes things happen that are out of our control
People leave, people lie
People smile, people cry
Someone can be in your life
And they can pretend
That they love you
But in their own mind
They know they're wrong
For stringing you along

You get hurt
But you get back up
You're broken hearted
You're angry
You keep moving on
Bravery

Then, something will happen
That balances it all out
Someone comes along
And erases that pout

It may even be the same person
Trying to right their wrong
Or it may be someone different
Who sings you a song

The universe has a way of balancing out
The sadness and the sorrow
With happiness for tomorrow

You're really good at ******* things up
Being selfish
Being rude
And making people give up

Time after time
Effort after Effort
It's never enough for you
You're as sour as a lime

You are a first class *****
Ignoring me
Doing things to hurt me
You're like mucuna pruriens, making me itch

I can't even believe you
Don't you feel bad when you act this way
Don't you have a heart
I guess not
You're really good at ******* things up
