I remember that pear tree.
We never ate any, but...
I loved the grace
Your body gave.
I loved the way
You would strut.
Your crimson hair
Was so unfair,
It blinded me,
What the fuck?
And I was caught up in that aura,
I was so fucking stuck.
And you were maybe 16,
Shit, I was just the same age.
We were just kids,
essentially.
But we were on the same page.
Or maybe not,
I was a bit more focused on
All the rage.
I didn't mean to move so fast,
I left my thoughts in that cage.
We had a beautiful couple of weeks.
A lot of good made,
Oh, so many small peaks.
I was torn all apart
When you said suddenly
That you thought it was best
That you broke up with me.
What a summer...
My heart and head spiraled down.
It was a bummer...
1000 degrees
But I'd freeze
If it would numb her...
I wanted the leaves
And the breeze
To divert from her...
That shit was such a stunner,
She suddenly lost my number...
Red-headed and full of dread
All in my head
I thought I loved her.
Maybe I
Wasn't that guy
In her eyes.
I was a cover
Up
For all that she wanted
That she flaunted,
There was another
One
And I never caught it
Just bought it
All
Like a flutter.
Deep within me
I envied
The other guy,
He was a cutter.
And a cut above me,
What did she see?
I wasn't for her...
Oh...
No...
I wasn't for her.
Or maybe that was destined,
I didn't press it,
She wasn't for me.
Oh...
No...
She wasn't for me.
But I still remember the way
My heart felt in my chest
When I first laid my eyes on you
On who
I figured was the best...
At all the little games of love
That I was sitting there to test.
She was all I ever wanted,
I was so far from the rest...
I never felt her heart detach
As I was lying on her chest.
I wasn't her idea of ideal,
I was blinded there,
I guess.
All that crimson hair,
It wasn't fair.
It left me in a mess.
I was so far captivated,
I had failed all my own tests...
But I remember.
