I thought I'd marry the first girl I ever loved We'd have a beautiful wedding And it was all choreographed from above We could attract our opposites Meet in the middle, Compromise and then we'd settle. But I slept through an existential nightmare Where black clouds rolled Like marching bands at midnight And my guitar strings don't sing for you anymore And we don't talk on the phone, At least not like we did before. So I'll stick this needle in my arm And draw the poisoned blood from my heart Before it reaches my brain and distorts my reality Because my reality is lonely And the truth is you don't want to be seen With someone like me

Please don't read this if you're the reason I'm writing it.
