Kryptonite and Chaos

You filled me up with silly dreams to make me smile

I should have known that it could only last a while

Before we’d argue, bring it crashing to the ground

The happiness we had lies crushed and beaten down

You fooled me, told me pretty lies to keep me near

But broke the vows you did, and now a silent tear

Rolls down my face as I think about the nights

We had forever in those moments, now we fight

About the things that don’t matter in the least

We live to make each other angry, causing grief

It’s so pathetic where we’ve finally come to stand

I’m the kryptonite in your world, Superman

And you’re the chaos where once there was perfection

What were we thinking when we made this damn connection?

Why do we do this? Our relationship’s a mess

Frozen hearts so constantly put to the test

We walk around so bitter, don’t know how to change

Wild, untamed souls refuse to be rearranged

And so the rules of friendship we are always bending

The fighting signifies, but doesn’t cause an ending

Might sound crazy, but I swear that it’s the glue

You take things out on me, I take things out on you

Each other’s savior when we need to crash and burn

Down for each other when there’s no where else to turn

So here we are, somehow holding on as friends

Selfish or stubborn, no, we just won’t let it end

Like addictions in each other’s lives, you see

I need you just as much as I know you need me

Cause if we didn’t we’d have parted long ago

We’re gripping on to something, but what, I don’t know

I love you more than any words could ever say

And then I hate you, undecided, here I stay

But what would Superman be without kryptonite?

Too much perfection makes the story boring, right?

We balance out the smiles by creating frowns

We’ll laugh for hours, then we’ll tear each other down

A silent understanding, everything is cool

You will forgive me, and I will forgive you

And so we’re unlike any ordinary friends

And that’s okay with me cause I would rather spend

My whole life knowing that you’ve always got my back

Might break me, shake me, but you put me back on track

You fill me up with silly dreams to make me smile

Strike the piٌata, dump the candy in a pile

Can’t put it back together, but you can pick it up

That’s what you do for me, and, well, that’s good enough

It’s friendship with a twist, but its so worth the fights

Even through chaotic fields of kryptonite
