The sweet words echo over and over again in my head
"I love you" "I love you" "I love you" How sweet it is.
It's so nice until I wake up and realize i'm just in my bed.
I wish that feeling could last forever , because waking up feels like a major diss.

However, today is the day that i'm going to stop being lazy and try,
I don't want those words to forever evade me until the day that I die.
I don't want to be surrounded by my repetitive unsuccessful attempts,
instead I want to find somewhere where I can live and be kempt.

So I slip on my shoes and out through the door I go.
I'm ready to find that special someone that will sing me that sweet chorus:
"I love you" "I love you" "Oh how much I TRULY love you" And so,
Here I am, waiting by this dam, searching for my one true madam.

Time passes by, but this time I will try, my eyes will stay dry.
Because this time, I'm not ready to bleed grime, swallowed up like a lime.
This is when I make my stand, this is now my land, and I need a hand.
And finally among the horizon , there I see a beautiful amazon, standing there brazen.

And then out of nowhere it hits me like a ton of bricks.
After a sudden flash and my eyes have had enough time to adjust,
I realize that i'm dreaming in the day and that it's a trick,
and it's then that I decide that it would just be best to turn to rust.
