When I read a book
I have a tendency to go right to the
Table of contents
To gauge what I'm in for
To see when I'll be crying
When there's "When She Saw Him"
And "The Last Goodbye"
I don't know what's going to happen
But I know something will
When I get really into a book
I have a tendency to go right to the
Last few pages
To see whose names are still relevant
Who survived that goodbye and
Was that look of when she saw him filled with
Daggers or stupid little red paper hearts
Who has made it to the last few pages
To say, yeah, it got rough but we made it through
I wonder
If you went to my table of contents
What you would see there
I wonder
If you went to the last pages of this story
Would you see my name?
