Our Relationship is so stupid
You look like a zombie
You're 6'4", barely 150 lbs
Medically speaking, that's just gross.
My body's all sharp bones,  nowhere soft left
Sometimes I can tell you've been drinking when you pick me up
Sometimes I can't
Sometimes you bring me to parties where there's a pile of *******
the size of a dinner plate
right on the coffee table
Sometimes I make you buy me *****

We're so stupid
We just sit on the couch
and kiss
and watch movies written for kids
talking about politics as if we could change ****
sharing a blanket as if we were in love

You're just so stupid
because you think I'm funny when I bomb an open mic
and you tell me you love me when my tics keep me up at night
and you kiss my fingertips when they bleed from my bites
I can't control my body
But you're so stupd
that you still love it

We're that couple that got in a fight in the cub parking lot at midnight
The couple that made out in your Toyota corolla by the water tower
The couple that ruins every party
The couple that makes out with others in front of each other
Just to see that spark of jealousy
We're that couple that everyone tells to break up
but we don't

But I'm pretty stupid too
because I love you when you can't sit still
When you stop taking your medication
When your head aches from withdrawal
I still love to lay beside you in bed
the curtains drawn to keep out the light at 3 in the afternoon
When the doctor's say it's ADHD but you say it's a sparkling personality
when the voices in your head make you want to die
I still love you
