you said you cant keep hanging around there
with these thoughts that rot in my hair
and the kids that never go to sleep
i’ll wear my favorite dress
but it will make no difference
i am not the same as i was when you first met me
and my eyes were still bright
and i hadn’t yet begun to destroy my body
drink until you want me
tie me up and taunt me
stay here forever just to haunt me
stuck inside your day dream
tell your friends that i seem
to be doing better this year
there's blood stained in my singing
and ink blotted in my dream
figures of the people i have tainted
with this maddening illusion and
constant confusion that
i can treat them well
drink until you want me
tie me up and taunt me
stay here forever just to haunt me
i'll swear I'm feeling better
we'll fight about whether or not
I've lost my mind
