I had thought I left my heart inside that house located on white avenue as I drove away when the morning had arrived You handed me a plastic bag just in case The sickness went away I’ll have you know It turned from sadness to anger to hate to love to sadness again and then back to anger Because why on earth would I let someone do what you had done to me? I had thought my heart was past the landmark bridge next to the coast I thought that I burned for you, darling But I burn for no one but myself and the success that won’t stop overflowing into my arms. I think of you sometimes but not like I used to I feel for you sometimes but not how you’d want me to Your ignorance will slowly catch up to you and set you on fire The people you took for granted will be long gone but maybe a few will return to watch you burn if you’re lucky.

If You're Lucky
I had thought I left my heart inside that house located on white avenue as I drove away when the morning had arrived You handed me a plastic bag just in case The sickness went away I’ll have you know It turned from sadness to anger to hate to love to sadness again and then back to anger Because why on earth would I let someone do what you had done to me? I had thought my heart was past the landmark bridge next to the coast I thought that I burned for you, darling But I burn for no one but myself and the success that won’t stop overflowing into my arms. I think of you sometimes but not like I used to I feel for you sometimes but not how you’d want me to Your ignorance will slowly catch up to you and set you on fire The people you took for granted will be long gone but maybe a few will return to watch you burn if you’re lucky.
