i must admit
i'm in love with the actress
the one with the dark hair
that goes blonde half way in
i had to pause when i saw
the man behind the wall
then i hit play
i was too scared
stoned alone in the quiet
room where i live
four different girls
the major players in my dreams
what could they possibly mean
the one i never loved
at least not like that
i ask myself so constantly
"if i had would i have
more in my little pile than a couple
of shirts and a bra that smells like
perfume"
I ask myself
"did you enjoy it"
And lovingly I say that
"drunkenly i did"

i climb the vine
i pull myself up to the rocks above
a dark canyon meets me there
i yell my voice out into the black air
i throw my mighty boomerang
but it never comes back to me
i light my last match that i have
the wind snuffs it out a hundred yards down
i prop up my now useless firewood
i lay my sleeping bag right on the edge
i hope not to roll off while i'm asleep
the wind blows
and i'm cold

stupid love
we've all had enough
and we're tracking you down\to beat you up
stupid love, i'm just about done
you're turning me bitter
and making my skin rough
i'm laying out in the freezing rain
i'm ready to turn to ice with all the pain
i'll drink it all and curl into a ball
and fade away like the guy in american gods
i'm so conniving i'll strike you like lightning
with all my stupid prying and all my lying
i'm so conniving i'll strike you like lighting
with all my stupid crying and all my pining
