Only If You Dare

You were designed to hurt me
You were comfortable for a time and nothing else
I brushed you off like dust
You were careless, and gave me a reason to care less
You wiggled your way into the center of my attention
Hyper fixate on the release that you provide me
At least I know I'm a hypocrite
I can't have it both ways, that's the jist of my conflict
This is the game we play
I play to lose because I know no other way
You'd think by now I'd have learned a lesson
Messing with fire for the burn, you know I'm desperate
Never trust her eyes, they tell the biggest lies
Never trust her mouth, she'll turn you out
Never trust her hair, only if you dare
You have arrived to desert me
The inevitability of fracture burrows deep
Who needs boundaries anyway?
I can't maintain a healthy relationship
The lack of anger just tells me I'm unaffected
After all, you just gave me what I expected
Never trust her eyes, they tell the biggest lies
Never trust her mouth, she'll turn you out
Never trust her hair, only if you dare

Pig Charm

She asked me "what's keeping you awake tonight?"
I said, "wondering how to get you to remove
The word platonic from your vocabulary"
I know it's embedded deep
I can do anything that I want to
Except solve the jigsaw that is you
And I swear beneath these wounds
Is a good heart with good intentions
I'm the master of that pig charm
That make you sick charm
Know me, I'm shot
Poetry, the plot
Feelings broken
Heartless, hopeless
You know I wasn't always this way
Once I was pure, and relatively okay
Unrequited love has turned me into
A passive aggressive little fuck
I am insecure and unprepared
So why do I expect you to care?
I swear, I'll make you laugh; I'll make you smile
But I won't make your heart beat
I will dig inside your eyes
Until you see me
Know me, I'll rot
Hold me, or not
Fuck me, I'm gross
Know me, know me
I am fully aware that love isn't fair
I'm no big deal, I'm a pig squeal

Winter In Ohio
Tuning Unknown
How foolish of me to believe in a moment of weakness that you could love me
How foolish do you have to be when all history seems to do is repeat itself?
Sitting in my car that takes me everywhere
Anywhere but where you are tonight
And I'm wondering
How could you leave me sit?
I guess winter in Ohio hasn't changed a bit
It's heartbreak season
How careless I am investing in reckless hope and cigarette smoke
You asked for this, so swallow your pride and allow your swollen ego to die
You're not all you think you are
In every pretty set of sorry blue eyes
So ponder this;
How can love fill you up and leave you empty at the same time?
How could you leave me sit?
I guess winter in Ohio hasn't changed a bit
It's heartbreak season
It takes time to get things right
It takes time
It takes time to make things right
It takes time
Cold weather
But not quite as cold as the ever unfolding universe
In the cosmos is where love is born to die
Like a star, a supernova
And I've come to realize through this all
That gravity is a luxury
