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 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

Cause that's all that you'll get

So you'll have to accept

You are here and then you're gone

But I believe that lovers should be tied together

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's the only way it can be

So I stand in the sun

And I breathe 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

And laying in a bathtub full of freezing water

Wishing you were a ghost

But once you knew a girl and you named her "Lover"

Danced with her in kitchens through the greenest summer

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

Where she said she was going to

But you know that she's gone

Cause she left you a song

That you don't want to sing

Singing, I believe that lovers should be chained together

Thrown into a fire with their songs and letters

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

And ended up becoming something other

than what I had planned to be

All right

I believe that lovers should be draped in flowers

And laid entwined together on a bed of clover

Left there to sleep

Left there to dream of their happiness
