A hole in the top of the lip, the seam across my face.
Sewn shut and all zipped up to keep your secrets safe.
No tales from the heartbreak kid, all memory erased.
It’s all bottled up so tight, who knows how much I can take.
All those times you said, “don’t write a song about me. “
So here’s your melody
this song goes out to no one. Especially not the one I love.
I can’t express my feelings about you to anyone.
This is my only vice, compulsion operates.
My mouth: hells gaping maw, no limits separate
fact from illusion, apologies necessary.
It’s safer to my keep my troubled mind in a severed state.
All those times you said, “don’t write a song about me. “
So here’s your melody
this song goes out to no one. Especially not the one I love.
I can’t express my feelings about you to anyone.
“It’s always about me,” you complained.
Well, this song’s not about you anyway!
