Doom Is a Four Letter Word Just Like Love.

We were doomed from the start. I have a bad reputation and a big mouth. I hid behind an eight ball and fake smile I masked it with pretty things and insight Ring around the rosie and we all fall down. Seeing through the world through the eyes of a newborn. Digging a grave every night of my life. I will never have a relevant lover. I will never have a relevant bride. And I thought you were stronger then I Just take the leap come on sweetheart. Can't I be your comic book villain. I got a heart as frozen as a rock. She's got eye's that will light up the sky. Let the smoke fill up the room. My immune system is setup for failure Everything I do is to make me sick Ignore all the sirens Ignore all those lights. Covered in a black bag on the stretcher But I'm not your problem at all. We all live to die. - I thought you had the courage to be my bridge. I thought you had the courage to be my bride. With reason we can hide behind a fable. With treason we can hide behind who's wrong. And I'm human and we all make mistakes.
