My chemical romance
watches me write
makes me remember
everything
I’ve been wanting to forget

Mary go round
up and down this hill
my autumn is my house
and my heart is a fill

Every boy I loved has a sandy heart
watch out! Here comes the wind
Now my drink is sour
a broken dream tastes so tart

In the purgatory of customs
My devil is in black and white
And my angel wears a red tie
I can’t speak or the dam will peak
Every confession gets sealed
between the stamp and me

–what beautiful skin— she says
-hiding the implosion that’s held within-
I say
–Every boy I loved has a sandy heart

Sacred is the feeling
of a bitter good to have you
sorry I can’t keep you here,
Too bad that I can’t have you here

I miss your pink granite bed
I miss my flower orange glow
Flying down your corridor
Watch me as I’m out your front door

Bless me as I sing out the front door
Watch me as I’m out your front door

For Hui (my car’s name), Texas, and the teachers of the broken dreams.
