#dominos
She’s a pistol and I’m so whipped. She’s a cure and I’m so very sick. It’s amazing the things she thought of; to bring a glove, if push came to shove. I fell inlove but first I tripped. and usually I spring back up so quick. She said “take one more for the road.” What does it matter if I’m not taking you home? I only want to unburden your load, I thought that was already known, lost in translation like playing games of telephone. Knock me down like Dominos, to keep me close and blame it on when the wind blows. Knock me down like Dominos to keep me close and also keep me on my toes. I’m being fully placated, for my obsessive obsession ignoring what was plainly stated in my last confession. Please don’t let me be hated for my sporadic depression, because I know that it’s fated for me to leave an impression. She said “take one more for the road.” What does it matter if I’m not taking you home? I only want to unburden your load, and make you feel high, and sigh and moan but lost in translation like my girl Scarjo. Knock me down like Dominos, to keep me close and away from your foes. Knock me down like Dominos, to keep me close and make sure I don’t go. Knock me down like Dominos, to keep me close and also keep me on my toes.

Deadly Dominos
you were the one he'd always leave me for, you knew how i felt about him, about you. i loved you i trusted you i think about you when i pass the subway next to the domino's. i thought about you yesterday i thought about you today and i'll think about you everyday did you think about me on my birthday? do you think about me at all? it's hard to think we were so close once. we havent spoken in a year, and i dont want to speak to you. we loved eachother. you cheated, and you lied. you were kind, that's who i loved. it was your birthday, was it a good one? i hope youre okay, i hope youre better.

I have always been scared to be alone So tell me why now All I want is to crawl into my closet Close the door And fall apart In utter silence The only sound Is the mute thud of my pieces falling to the carpet Till the last one _falls_

Fall Apart
Do we have to be like dominos where the beauty is when we fall down? Let me fall with you.

Dominos
Not gonna stop Not gonna pause Don't wanna think about where the dominos fall 'Cause thinking hurts Constant heartache Somehow I always come up short So I'm gonna be reckless Gonna be blind Not care just to get by Maybe it's selfish Maybe it's wrong But I'm tired of crying all night long Can take the pain Take the scars and the blame But not the fear that always remains So judge and accuse Tell me I can make it through Convince me of the so-called truth But I'm not gonna stop Not gonna pause I'm not gonna care where the dominos fall
