Even in death, you will be with me Despite the strife, you cut me open like a heart knife There’s no reason that I adore you, but I just do because you make me feel free We fight together…as one… I am the moon and you are the sun But…I don’t understand where you stand Stubborn Fire that’s salivating on your tongue Ring around me, Pride Close at Hand You’re grand, you’re my idol, so take my hand, my sexy fool…you’re my missing longue You make me breathe again You make me fall apart like rose pedals on the forest sky Then again, I am more brave than a million men Arrogant aggression evolves around my inner being, I can’t deny Independent off of others’ dependence Point the gun of blame at me, buddy Red of undead dread bleed through my inner being Rock n rollin’ on pop this evening… I’ll wear the cap of illegal pride…forget the haters… And the stuck-up, gangsters and the roller-skaters… That think they are all that when they are not I’m on the bridge, Above the watery grave I see Below me Rumor has it that I’m a hero and a villain combined I’ve been fined for being awfully kind So tired of being stepped on Time and time again You hurt me badly to the core of my existence It’s none of your business What I do in my daily life… Creativity and logic is getting less used in society Maturity and immaturity levels vary… I eye her suspiciously Like a security guard, checking out a witch in the hunting spree So scared and unprepared… Clinch your stereotypes, But know who you are deep inside Clearly, I was taken astray by wicked ways Confident strides is in my DNA Twist and turn with me, Serpent Serpentine Baby… Silly Kerfly, magic is for adults… I was a hobo I was a homeless guy, I already know Don’t assume who I am… I can’t deny That you take me as a lie Or as a joke rather… There are much more grapes of glory and grace to gather Vines of vibrant vulgarity is saturated on your tongue Your devouring tongue of pleasures… Beyond a million measures… Vibes of genius rummages through all of me Cuz all of you wants all of me Cuz all of me wants all of Him… Losing it already… I’m insane I’m a worthless son of a gun Stuck together like two peas in a pod Then, we went our separate ways I can live without wifi I can live without the internet I can live without you I can’t live without her I can live without him… But, let me sink into my chair today There’s too much to bear on television Ah man, no wonder I have headaches and an unfulfilled mission A mission of becoming the new me… My old ways are hunting me down I want to be free like an ever-growing tree… Wearing a crown of Tranquil Town ASAP, Give me a break QTC (quit the crap) You ate me up like scrumptious steak Touch me with your eyes Lick me with your flames We are good gals and guys So, play me like your app games You can tell everyone – I love you… I don’t care anymore… You are my number one I’m blue, then red again… Boo, it’s true… I hadn’t a clue… I’ve been missing you I like closeness I like affection Sports are exciting more or less I like perfection I’m a flawed mess
