In my mind
James is playing
Getting Away With It
(All Messed Up).
As I sit
On my bed
Trying to
Figure out.
Where did I make
That wrong turn
On the freeway
Called life.
Could've sworn
Overhead sign said
Next turn right
For true happiness.
As Princess Di’s
Faerie tale romance
Crumbles to dust
Before a watching world.
No Princess Charming
Is standing
With her magical kiss
At the bedside.
To heal the heartaches
Or bandage the wounds
Affecting our souls
By love gone wrong.
In this impossible dream
We weave around our souls
Searching for everlasting love
Between two people.
As Princess Di’s
Faerie tale romance
Crumbles to dust
Before a watching world.
Taking away my heart
Some cheap trinket
To be discarded
At your whimsical pleasure.
Not caring
About my pain
Or me
You f--king bitch.
In stealing
My hopes and dreams
I shared with you
For the future.
As Princess Di’s
Faerie tale romance
Crumbles to dust
Before a watching world.
