Found Drama I
Parenthetical Girls
please honey help me home tonight
these legs of mine don't work quite right
and I'd apologize but you've heard
this line hundreds of times
in hindsight must I pay the price
for places where your injured lie
we fell like flies this language
lost long trait of time (?)
a spell of helpless promise dead
this blush of what I could have been
something good again
you're never too thin or too pure
I'm sure
wait for someone to see
and dream of unspeakable things
those debts we've made and surely can't afford
rest asssured they'll be paid for
so sweetie see me home tonight
my airs are not quite rarefied
but i love you more than life
ill advised of what that must imply
you sacrifice you compromise
so why can't I be satisfied
oh christ I know you tried
but that dear dear had to die
wait for someone to see
and dream of unspeakable things
those debts we dredge and surely can't ignore
heaven knows that we're done for
still better best remembered when
the way I may have never been
something sweet again I suppose then
we've chosen what's best
so say that i still look ok
and pray this all makes sense someday
so fair welterweight
seldom safe now that I know my place
Wait for someone to see
and dream of unspeakable things
those debts we've made and surely
can't afford
rest assured they'll be paid for
