Thank you Mr. Sandman for putting my heart to sleep
You didn't **** me but my affectionate nature you buried deep
I found myself numb,
unfeeling about anyone
I still had respect
but couldn't bring myself to drop my guard
I felt like I always had to protect my neck

I knew I couldn't live like that forever
I felt as unloved as a bad Christmas sweater
I tried my best to shake it all off
tried to become cold and hard, but I needed someone with whom I could be soft

Thank you fate for sending to me a friend
a collaboration partner who would become much more in the end
She's mine now and I couldn't be happier
now she's just amazing, even when I couldn't be crappier
