lately i've been wishing i had one desire

something that would make me never want another

something that would make it so that nothing matters

all would be clear then

but i guess i'll have to settle for a few brief moments

and watch it all dissolve into a single second

and try to write it down into a perfect sonnet

or one foolish line

because that's all that you'll get

so you'll have to accept

you are here

then you're gone

i believe that lovers should be tied together

and thrown into the ocean in the worst of weather

left there to drown

left there to drown

in their innocence

but as for me i'm coming to the final chapter

i read all of the pages and there's still no answer

only all that was before i know must soon come after

that is the only way it can be

so i stand in the sun

and i breath with my lungs

trying to spare me the weight of the truth

saying everything you've ever seen was just a mirror

you've spent your whole life sweating in an endless fever

now you're laying in a bathtub full of freezing water

wishing you were a ghost

but once you knew a girl and you named her lover

and danced with her in kitchens through the greenest summers

but autumn came, she disappeared, you can't remember

where she said she was going to

but you know that she's gone

because she left you a song

that you don't wanna sing

singing i believe that lovers should be chained together

and thrown into a fire with their songs and letters

and left there to burn

left there to burn

in their arrogance

but as for me i'm coming to my final failure

i've killed myself with changes trying to make things better

but i still ended up becoming something other

that what i had planned to be

allright!

now i believe that lovers should be draped in flowers

and laid entwined together on a bed of clover

and left there to sleep

left there to dream

of their happiness
