Doom Is a Four Letter Word Just Like Love.

We were doomed from the start.
I have a bad reputation and a big mouth.
I hid behind an eight ball and fake smile
I masked it with pretty things and insight
Ring around the rosie and we all fall down.

Seeing through the world through the eyes of a newborn.
Digging a grave every night of my life.
I will never have a relevant lover.
I will never have a relevant bride.
And I thought you were stronger then I

Just take the leap come on sweetheart.
Can't I be your comic book villain.
I got a heart as frozen as a rock.
She's got eye's that will light up the sky.
Let the smoke fill up the room.

My immune system is setup for failure
Everything I do is to make me sick


Ignore all the sirens
Ignore all those lights.
Covered in a black bag on the stretcher
But I'm not your problem at all.
We all live to die. -

I thought you had the courage to be my bridge.
I thought you had the courage to be my bride.
With reason we can hide behind a fable.
With treason we can hide behind who's wrong.
And I'm human and we all make mistakes.
