You Can't Make Me

You can't make me You can't make me bad You can't make me broken Sadness just an illusion A mind a mass of sparking wires Find it jumps to wrong conclusion You make me happy Causality creates a cadence As feeling fixed follows you Though the sudden drop off Is entirely mine to own I'm inexplicably mended by your music You can't make me I offer myself

Awesomely gothic, I picture you in a classic black Victorian dress and veil, most likely music The Smiths. ~

Haha I'm wearing a dressing gown with hearts on and have a dog on my knee - although I own the correct ensemble of clothing - well not sure I have the veil :) nice to hear it conjures something interesting. I kept thinking of the petulant line of 'you can't make me' when I was driving this morning and wanted to do something with it
