It's ironic - you're not environmentally conscious——
And don't forget, baby, you're the one who said you want this
You wanna date her, but then you claim you've had it,
So you return like I'm made of paper or plastic
Crumble me up and throw me away
Or repurpose my presence, you wouldn't want me to stray
and try to salvage what's left of my shattered broken pieces
Keep me compacted tight, make me believe I'm beneath this
Shred me, burn me, then keep my remains
Just to piece me back together how you want me in your brain
One day you'll lose me, I'll become biodegradable,
and you'll try to reuse me only to realize I'm not disposable
I'm not the insulated coffee cup you settle for when you're in a rush
In fact, keep this up and I'll be ice cold to the touch
Cut down tree after tree then wonder why you can't catch your breath
Dug yourself into a landfill trying to avoid your death
Consume me, then remove me, keeping pieces each time
But you can take it all, the soul you know's no longer mine
