Was so looking forward to tonight,
What a mess I have made of my life,
Just got carried away, emotions led me astray,
I’m such a pathetic loser baby,
So we sit on the wall of your secret garden,
But I don’t listen to you I just,
Stare at your lips and lose myself in your eyes,
You say, yes we should just be friends,
Oh, that old thing again,
So I just nod my head and,
I say ‘It’s okay’ but obviously it’s to the cont-a-rary,
Did I just make that word up,
But aren’t words just absurd when it comes to saying what you want to say.
And so I do my best to take it like a man,
You say I look broken,
I say it’s time to go, but you want me to stay,
Why do you torture me,
You, I cannot resist and you do not put up much of a fight,
Mr. Spock would say it’s not logical Captain,
And tomorrow, you won’t even touch me
I say ‘It’s okay’ but obviously it’s to the cont-a-rary,
Did I just make that word up,
But aren’t words just absurd when it comes to saying what you want to say.
And what I really want say,
Cannot seem to make this love grow,
Maybe there was nothing there,
An empty, seedless, bastard of a love affair with no love,
Just sensation,
No love,
Just gratification,
Masturbation, using someone else’s sex.
So come with me, to the land of my imagination,
That’s where you’ll love me,
Oh, I know, it’s just a dream,
But dreaming can be real, at Midsummer with the help of fairies.
It’s so beautiful, never want to leave her,
Can we just live here.
