Chorus: Direct Quote
Shakespeare, William. Romeo and Juliet. - 
Act 5, Scene 3, line 92
Act 2, Scene 2, line 43
 
 
---------------------------------
So, thanks for the distractions 
But I need to pursue my passions 
What path am I on again?
My universe was turned upside down
I gave you my hearts crown 
And you were too busy filling your purse 
In other words, can I get a reimburse?
Of the curse of knowing you 
Time cannot reverse
Where to Start?

You may argue that it was my choice to go rescue 
Because I thought I saw, strength, value, and virtue 
That’s why I was into and wanted to continue 
Now I see though that your love was never true
It was all just a waste; my heart needs to be erased
My hearts broken and needs to be awoken 
Where to Start?

Her eyes a luring ocean’s plea
A temptress, lies, beneath the see
Drowning deep in her misery
Her honey-sweet voice screams to me 

Siren's melodies
‘That which we call a rose’
Weaves her venomous thorns
My chapters burn, their pages torn

Lust of sinners entwined to the mast
‘Death hath sucked the honey of thy breath’
Crimson, crimson the petals lie
Thus, betrayed by her soul kiss, I die

I need a nurse, for these symptoms are getting worse
But the dispatcher only wanted to send a hearse 
Because I’m frozen and instead I’m being led in a sled 
Consumed by this blackened cavity tissue 
Because girl you are my issue
My love became the smoke of a cigar
Forgotten memoirs of a fallen star
Thrown down and drown in a shadowy well 
Farewell. No misspell. I meant, "Go To Hell!"
Here’s my eulogy. Wish you never met me 
Thanks for the remembrance of you
Where to start?

She a player who’s queued for her next match 
Wanting to try out her newest patch 
Then taking aim
And ------- until there is nothing else to game 
The body counts
Something is wrong with her account 
Where to start? 

She needs to go find a new toy
Something like a little soldier boy
Melting all the plastic
Making all the room toxic
Did someone call for the medic?
The verdict, horrific
My empty cavity 
Just a tragic memory
Where to start?

Her eyes a luring ocean’s plea
A temptress, lies, beneath the see
Drowning deep in her misery
Her honey-sweet voice screams to me 

As there will always be this shadow behind my ---
To harass 
As a reminder of our past
So, why do the nice guys finish last? 
Because of you!
Where to start?

In pain, I cried
Being electrified 
In this hospital room 
Called life’s classroom 
I’ll need a qualified doctor
Something to monitor 
This surgery of your robbery 
From the treasury 
Of my heart 
Where to start?

Her eyes a luring ocean’s plea
A temptress, lies, beneath the see
Drowning deep in her misery
Her honey-sweet voice screams to me

Siren's melodies
‘That which we call a rose’
Weaves her venomous thorns
My chapters burn, their pages torn

Lust of sinners entwined to the mast
‘Death hath sucked the honey of thy breath’
Crimson, crimson the petals lie
Thus, betrayed by her soul kiss, I die
