No one forgot my birthday Except for me So I got myself a belated gift A Cheshire Cat, you see You picked her of all the strays For one simply perfect thing She wore the same red hair, And same green eyes as me Then a month went by Before I got the call I should have read The ruby writing on the wall So now I have the same dream Every night, like clockwork You sit next to me on the curb Gazing in my eyes with that stupid smirk You drop me off at the bar And ask me if I'm okay I smile, and lie with all my heart "I know I'll see you again someday" I empty my wallet To give you everything I have "Just drive away into the sunset And never ******* look back" Then I disappear inside You follow me like a familiar ghost Aiming that sleek '45 Where you know it will hurt me the most- Yourself That's when you end it Right through the temple Your final confession So beautifully simple What a lovely interlude It always makes me cry But occasionally, from time to time I feel you wipe the tears from my eyes And the thing about my cat Her eyes aren't green anymore For the day I got the news They turned light brown, like yours
