Doodlebug
i left you
right before sanity
left me
ironic coincidence
since you were the crazy one
but don’t flatter yourself
my breakdown had nothing to do with you
you were just the last
in a long line
of bad decisions
next to an even longer line
of chances never taken
out of fear
i take full responsibility
for all of it
even the grand i lent you
i should’ve known
i could kiss that goodbye too
the warning signs were everywhere
in bright neon lights
with bells and whistles
sometimes we only see what we want to see
i saw a pretty boy
who drew pretty pictures
whose pretty eyes looking at me
made me feel pretty
for the first time
in years
looks can be so deceiving….
i heard Arizona didn’t work out
that’s a shame
i thought the desert would be perfect for you
since you’re a fucking cactus
i wonder who you’re pricking now
