I didn’t want to tell you when I saw you
But you have a habit of losing control
And losing control over that very act

It’s questionable how I should react

Given my stature
Soft, small girl
Uneasy, shy, reserved
Says the wrong things at the right time

So you glanced away, ditched my eyes
Sighed a bunch, hands on thighs
Said you had to go
As if I didn’t already know

So you glanced away
But you have a habit of losing control
Soft, small girl
Says the right things at the wrong time

Says the right things at the wrong time

Future plans

Your and my eyes
Dripping thighs
Cool, let the curtain blow

Always enclosed
Rapture happens
I’ll fall asleep in the falling snow

Weirdness and children
Secrets safe within the past
Don’t want you to notice that part

Waiting and waiting
For me to just wake up
Stop tearing my life apart

On endings

A word to the man that refused to go to the park with me
We had fun in the white gazebo didn’t we

Your complaints running wild about the wood
Me, just happy that came by you could
I’m trapped in a lustful zone of hostility
I want you terribly under the covers with me

A word to the man who won’t listen to anybody else’s music
You were my muse for so many months
I wore heels just for you because I wanted to be pretty
I wanted you to recognize that I was your girl

Soft and gentle, like the morning sea
You lied there deeply embedded in bed with me
You were so quiet I was afraid to talk
But I spelled out my love as if It was in chalk

A word to the man who thinks he’s badass
You’re a memory I’ll never forget
And when it’s cold outside, when it’s wet
Ending things with you I will regret

August 15th

Nobody will ever love you like I have
It’s true, but you can play it safe
A rush of blood through a cardiac valve
Time spent by the El Dorado lake

The housewife me would bake you sweets
Anything you want to enjoy
She’d think your clothes were really neat
She’d walk with grace and intricate poise

You told me I walked classy
It stuck with me like a tide
I couldn’t tell if you were being sassy
But god, I knew I was in for the ride

You’re a very bad guy

So charismatic it makes me bleed
I find you where I least expect
All I wanted was to be someone you need
But you didn’t understand how you did affect

My moods, my mind, my aching back
You hurt me in every which way
The dawn comes slow and stays like plaque
I’ve been up late calling your name

You’re just the same
But god, I knew I was in for the ride

When the stars align

When the stars align
I won’t think of you
I’ll no longer be with you
No more plans of our honeymoon

It started with a crisp green apple
And you, riding on your jet black bike
Overdosing on Percocet
Calling me for help

Over and over again

Pink dresses and lavish decor
With you I knew I always wanted more
Like fountains and the ocean, sea breeze
You stand and I fall to my knees

Over and over again

No more plans of our honeymoon
We’re filing our divorce papers soon
I can’t help but think is it my fault
But you were the one tearing me apart

Over and over again
I won’t think of you
