"This is a story..."

Write me a letter sayin "You're worthless"

Give me a lyric to write this down

Go on, just tell me "You're useless"

I want to continue to write these words down



Fill me a cup of wine and poisen

Let me drink it, every drop

Fall to the ground, and I am tainted

Laugh all you'd like but I'll be forever around



I want you to love me like you knew back when we said it true

Let me feel the daggers rip right though me exactly how I knew

We had our last chance, now I am begging for another round

You burried the bruises, drove away, and shot me down



Leave me a note that says "I used this"

Lay it so softly in plain site

Hold on, don't tell me "You're time's passed"

I don't want to feel so out of mind, so out of sight...



I want you to love me like you knew back when we said it true

Let me feel the daggers rip right though me exactly how I knew

We had our last chance, now I am begging for another round

You burried the bruises, drove away, and shot me down



We burried that hatchet now we're jaded

Thinking back, I can't remember much "It's gone"

Black out kisses and memories that are faded

I want you to know I've been waiting "So long"









To this departure, another chapter

"This is a story..." of my life

Turn over the page, a new memory

Look in the darkness and the mystery...

See your face

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wanted this one to be vague enough that who this is for would never actually understand it.  I just want her to know that what I want...and what she wants...are two entirely different things.  You are always my 'dog-eared page' that I turn back to every night.
