Shine your smile this way sweetie
Hear the sound of an American's broken heart
The more you mean to me
The less I seem to be able to stay by your side
Nevermind
One day you'll fall in love with some guy I hate
And move away and have a million kids
To kiss your lips, I've dreamt it about seventy times
To hear the words sung in these songs, a crappy paradise
Burn like a flame
I am so ashamed

You wear lots of pink and green
I'd prefer it if you kept your hair in pigtails tonight
I need this right
Crawling from my hole of self-pity to your side
Unnoticed
You're 'boyfriend' looks like he's fucked a million more
You want to love him, he wants to love a whore
These photographs we take for laughs
Become the most important things I have to me
Hold you in my hand
Love never goes as planned

Your parents say I'm sweet, you want a real man
Your friends all understand
I think I might just have to turn the lights off
It's easier when I think I might be blind

You tell me all the time that you hate school
I'd drop it all and buy a car and take you far away
Drive into the sunset
I mean, I must admit I'd like to fuck you
Hopefully
But this is oh so much more than you and him
It makes me hurt to see you date the missing fucking link
A birthday card from you is hard to throw away
You sign off 'lots of love'
I can't read that enough
Everything you are, everything you are
Is everything I want but also everything I will never have
