The candle I held for you
Was a ticking time bomb
A wedding cake of dynamite
A suicidal song
I took a sip of hope
And drowned it in despair
And you filled my glass
It wouldnt last.
Benefits-bought beer
The best Ive ever tasted
I bit my lip and made a quip
For all my chances wasted
It made you laugh, and then you left.
So long
You said 'tortured soul? You're an asshole'
I said 'I'd have to agree
I did my time and wrote some lines
Downed a bottle of red or three
You took my hope
Like a soap on a rope
And questioned my validity
And now Im done
It was fun.
