One I wrote you a love letter Hid it in your binder at recess And prayed you'd never know it was from me. It hurt when you called it silly. Two You're behind bars because of me I don't feel guilty Because you tried to take my innocence. Three You were the one I'd spend eternity with When I was in 8th grade. Four I never thought I'd love a girl You had soft hair and lips But I always confused envy and lust. Five You didn't understand my metaphors Or the things that interested me. I just didn't understand why you did so many drugs. Six Please tell me you'd like to see me again I had a beautiful night with you And I'm a sucker for boys who write and play guitar. Seven You are so handsome and you are so dull. Eight I'll always want you But the butterflies that used to flutter in my heart Are now eating it apart.
