La Belle Dam Sans Merci
La Belle Dam Sans Merci
You once meant the whole world to me
In a nostalgic backward portal
When I was seventeen and still immortal
In my naivety and fear
I thought you unique and sincere
But Holden Caufield, Sylvia Plath is just code word for sociopath
No princess, ever kissed a frog
But the January fog
Spreads across the sleeping southland
By a cold pacific left hand
I thought in you were all my dreams
My hopes my visions and my schemes
To the simple boy in adolescence
You were the feminine quintessence
But you went to study poly-sci
And I stayed swinging out to dry
On the clothes line where you left me
A green hand sinking in the waves
Fool me twice and I'm to blame
Fool me thrice and you'd still no shame
So I said I'd call you back in bold lie
Hoped in doing so made you cry
But we went walking through the pouring rain
You tried to kiss me but I said refrain
So you poured out your lake of issues
I handed you a box of tissues
You weren't unique, you were just scary
Boring, predictable, ordinary
We were a disaster like a trainwreck
A ruptured spleen or a broken neck
I didn't hate you though I wished I could
But I didn't forgive you though I knew I should
The years went passed and died in memory
Somewhere boy evolves to a man?
You once meant the whole world to me
In a nostalgic backward portal
When I was seventeen and still immortal
In my naivety and fear
I thought you unique and sincere
But Holden Caufield, Sylvia Plath is just code word for sociopath
No princess, ever kissed a frog
But the January fog
Spreads across the sleeping southland
By a cold pacific left hand
I thought in you were all my dreams
My hopes my visions and my schemes
To the simple boy in adolescence
You were the feminine quintessence
But you went to study poly-sci
And I stayed swinging out to dry
On the clothes line where you left me
A green hand sinking in the waves
Fool me twice and I'm to blame
Fool me thrice and you'd still no shame
So I said I'd call you back in bold lie
Hoped in doing so made you cry
But we went walking through the pouring rain
You tried to kiss me but I said refrain
So you poured out your lake of issues
I handed you a box of tissues
You weren't unique, you were just scary
Boring, predictable, ordinary
We were a disaster like a trainwreck
A ruptured spleen or a broken neck
I didn't hate you though I wished I could
But I didn't forgive you though I knew I should
The years went passed and died in memory
Somewhere boy evolves to a man?
