He asks me in a somber tone Would you rather I just leave you alone No! I cry Like Bella convinced she’s gonna die Before her boy gets back But you’re no Edward to attack The nearest bulletproof undead survivor I told you that I was a writer Did you ever guess You’d be the secret I confess On an empty page And my silent rage At being so dumb It’s 2011 and I am young And I never saw The brave outlaw With woman in tow If I’d’ve known would I have let it go And get that far He tells me that he plays guitar And writes his own music But would you choose it If you’d’ve known better I look outward at the weather It’s pathetic fallacy Raining down on you and me In the seasons we grow I love everything you stand for, so I guess I still feel the same I call you by your second name That I may one day share Is it laughter or do you care Like a desperate housewife Longing to just share her life With a man she met And cannot forget Though her principles try To give verse to the lie That we’re sold A woman can be brave and bold And speak her mind I didn’t leave you behind
