For you dear, I was born For you I was raised up For you I’ve lived and for you I will die For you I am dying now You were my mad little lover In a world where everybody fucks everybody else over You who are so far from me Far from me So far […]
You found me at some party You thought I’d understand You barreled over to me With a drink in each hand I respect your beliefs, girl, And I consider you a friend, But I’ve already been born once, I don’t wanna to be born again. Your knowledge is impressive And your argument is good But […]
