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
