I'm losing my mind Why the hell did I paint these walls white? And I wonder, what's the point of this life? Sometimes I'll pray but I will never close my eyes
I want to be happy Find a man with an old name just like me And get over how my dog is my best friend And he doesn't even know what my name is
Jonny, did you ever love me? Jonny, help me figure it out Not that I've paid attention But you haven't said it out loud Jonny, do you see what you're doing? What you're making me think about? This wasn't 'posed to be a love song But I guess it is now
Jonny, maybe you'll never hear this Or maybe it's stuck in your head Well, I hope it makes you cry The way that I did
Jonny, did you ever love me? Jonny, help me figure it out Not that I've paid attention But you haven't said it out loud Jonny, do you see what you're doing? What you're making me think about? This wasn't 'posed to be a love song But I guess it is now, isn't it?
Jonny, who was it that said "A white wall may seem empty But it's ready to be filled And, in its readiness, needs nothing It stands complete" Was it you? I- I don't remember But it makes me wonder Jonny, why couldn't you be ready, too? I was ready, ready to be happy Ready for that long look that never ends And, now I, I don't know what to do Yes, Jonny, I'll say it This is a love song, isn't it? Yes, well, I guess this is how it ends A strange poem about a plain and ready white wall One with many questions And a dog as speechless as that same wall And the sorrows of love's slow passing Goodbye, Jonny
