It Was a Shit Show

I love you, yes
And I'll confess
The thought of staying is so enticing
And when you speak
My knees get weak
I can't believe what I'm sacrificing
But let's get real
We know the deal

So darling, let's not tiptoe
This thing we had
Was not just bad
It was a shit show

We can't undo
Can't make amends
Dysfunction is our lingua franca

We can't unscrew
Each others friends
We're Jerry Springer, not Casablanca
There's hard to get

Then there's neglect
To say it's fate, you'd have to be a bit slow
Not to be crass
But this sucked ass
This was a shit show

Chernobyl next to us looks like a campfire
Hurricane Katrina was just bad weather
We have chemistry, of course, but that's a formula for divorce
A play about pieces of feces is what we are together

Oh, what the hell
Let's get a hotel
'Cause life is short and we're not getting any younger
But after sex
What happens next?
I mean in the long run, not just fatigue and hunger
And when you say
That I should stay
That's exactly when I should split though
I won't forget
I won't regret
This beautiful, heart-stopping, breathtaking, life-changing
