Love destroyed
He's gone
And left a void

A hefty encumbrance
You either shake it off, or...

I am a paper
 you are weight
 without you
 I’d fly away
 and with you
 I am crumpled
 crushed under

Crushed my exit.

Crushed,
And ruined,
And now I'm just done!

Slipped and fell and crushed his nuts
Two nuts in a shell
