Valentine's Day
It's been a bad day
What, no my mistake
not today
I'm just getting it out of my system
before the 14th of February rolls around
Why
It's a record breaking bad day for me
All the 18 years I've been breathing
my luck falls awful
I guess love is just not my game
I mean my 17th year
Oh man I was lucky enough to have someone so divine
I admit we had our problems before
but I shoved the past in a time capsule
and took a bazooka, destroyed it's contents
so I could move on, accept the present
make my Anastasia happy beyond content
Anastasia, I miss her
I admit
Anastasia, where did you go
Anastasia, I realize now
your break-up with me
which ended ugly
after you lied with your lips
while we kissed, when you said you loved me
but how was I supposed to take it
I was just done...
I know we've mended so I'm not here to talk about the past
We've mended and I just want to see your face again
I just a need a reason to smile
and somehow you always found a way to
somehow you always found a way...
It really killed me to lose you that day
I just didn't have it in me to mope around
so I got lost in the sound of pencil on paper
Now I'm trading my pencil for a face
cause I wish to see yours
I wish to see yours
but I have no idea where you went
or why you've gone silent
but I guess it's for the best
but I guess it's for the best
18 years, Valentine's Day has never been mine
lucky enough, I was lucky enough my 17th
to find someone in Anastasia
give her a gift, wrap myself in her lips
My 18th, a mystery
but I have a feeling I'll be chasing
an unknown 'you'
waking singing Something Corporate
'Oh, this is going to be one more ugly day'
