love's an illusion

(excerpt from the film st. elmo's fire)
It's true love, my friend.
Love, love, you know what love is? Love is an illusion created by lawyer types like yourself to perpetuate another illusion called marriage to create the reality of divorce and then the illusionary need for divorce lawyers. Love's an illusion.
It's the only illusion that counts my friend
Says who?
Anyone who's ever been in love.
Love sucks.
So does your attitude.

i'll keep you near my heart, you'll never be warm again.
i felt yr skin get coler, i'll watch you lose yr friends.
and now i won't feel bad, when i say i told you so.
i should've started running, a long time ago.
i sat smoking a cigarrette, as i watched the trees.
i watched them lose their color, i watched them lose their leaves.
i'm sorry for my past self, and i'm sorry for me now.
i hope that i'm this cruel, when i'm burning in hell.

tear me off

yeah i’m just a fuck up, but so are you
but i’ve gotten better, thanks to you.
i’ve lost some weight, and i lost friends
i wasted time, met closer ends.
if you say a calendar is a waste of time,
then tear me off, let me die.
if you call a calendar a waste of time,
then tear me off, i want to die.

you say yr tired of me
well i'm tired of myself
that's why i liked having you around
that's why i act like someone else
and i know that it's selfish
to carry these expectations
but after so much disappointment
you just run out of patients
you say yr tired of me
well i'm tired of myself
that's why i liked having you around
that's why i act like someone else
and i know that it's selfish
to carry these expectations
but after so much disappointment
you just run out of patients
you say yr tired of me
well i'm tired of myself
that's why i liked having you around
that's why i act like someone else
and i know that it's selfish
to carry these expectations
but after 17 goddamn years
i've lost my patients

you kissed a snowman til’ yr lips were turning blue
yr tanning bed’s not hot enough until it’s burning you
did you really think it’d ever make u feel any different?
u hoped a map could close the gap & make it not so distant

I remember the day you appeared on this earth
With eyes like the ocean, got blood on my shirt
From my camera angle it looked like it hurt
But your mama had a big old smile
We drove you home, saw your yellowing skin
Packed a few things and drove you back again
Stayed up all night worrying, wondering
What was gonna make it better
Broken bones heal when you set them right
Get your fine tooth comb from the barbicide
Our love's a protective poison
Well you are your mother's child
And she'll keep you for a while
But someday you'll be grown and then you'll be on your own
Halloween costume, looking real cute
With your pillowcase full, in your astronaut suit
But your cousin the cowboy is eyeing your loot
Better watch your Snickers bar
Out on the diamond, now you're up to bat
Chewing your big league, adjusting your hat
Taking a swing and hearing it crack
Look at that apple fly
Tears will dry if you give them time
Life's a roller coaster, keep your arms inside
Fear that's a big emotion
Well you are your mother's child
And she'll keep you for a while
But one day you'll be grown and then you'll be on your own
Posing for pictures, cap and a gown
Summer is coming, you're driving around town
Everyone's asking what you're gonna do now
I know you're gonna make a splash
And find you a sweetheart to treat you so kind
Invite her to dinner and kiss her goodnight
What I couldn't teach you, you will realize
She's the only thing that matters
Although he's a bastard, make your papa proud
Your a fine young man and I got no doubt
That you're gonna do this better
Cause you are your mother's child
She had you for a while
But now that you're grown, may you never be on your own
Well now that you're grown, may you never be on your own

Long ago
And oh so far away
I fell in love with you
Before the second show
Your guitar
It sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really there
It's just the radio
Don't you remember you told me you love me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby baby baby baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
Loneliness
Is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait
To be with you again
What to say
To make you come again
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar
Don't you remember you told me you love me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby baby baby baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
Don't you remember you told me you love me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby baby baby baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
