Like A Juliet

Now it goes like this, and if this isn't clear
Well, I want you to leave, ok?
Ain't no worse than that, so if I am not rude
Can you make it like Jude?

Well I see it's not up to you
The creation of this harmony
You don't even know the words
It takes to say that as long as you've been

Loving like a Juliet, I was always there
Like a Juliet, I was always there
Like a Juliet, I was always there

Yes, for real, my dear
You can't just set my rearview mirror, I fear
No more all-time enemies
Like Perseus and Medusa
Just 'cause I chose ya

I could never see without you
The ghost of this elegy
That's exactly what I meant when
I said lend your eyes to me

Staring like a Juliet at Romeo who sings
Like a Juliet at Romeo who sings
Like a Juliet at Romeo who sings

"Well, we're quite the same"
You said and I nodded
Hoping it'd be what I thought
That night we were in your car
You said "I'll be what you are"
I said "beware of that car"

But the sun had already shown up
Tired of hearing your black prophecy
What had never appeared in your ball
Was that you'd never changed me for real

Acting like a Juliet, spilling her tears
Like a Juliet, spilling her tears
Like a Juliet, spilling her tears

And if you stop biting these words
Made of sparkling unowned jealousy
You could even show me
All the beauty you want me to see

Soundin' like a Juliet dying in rhymes
Like a Juliet dying in rhymes
Like a Juliet dying in rhymes
Like a Juliet dying in rhymes
Oh, but look, there is no Romeo dying...
