Sniff, RIP FOB. :’( The Pete/Dave (Pave?) picture will never not be epic. I had to sit on my hands to keep from clapping when I clicked on it.

ROFL. Sitting on your hands? Haha. I’m gonna call them Pave now. Dete would be weird.

I hope that love he gave you,
Was just enough to save you.
You nearly broke my heart,
Just look at what you’re tearing apart

Stab my back,
It’s better when I bleed for you.
Walk on me,
That never was enough for you. 
——————
If I don’t make it known that
I’ve loved you all along
just like the sunny days that
we ignore because 
we’re all dumb & jaded
and I hope to God I figure out
what’s wrong
——————-
I’m holding out and I’m holding on 
to every letter and every song.
I pulled myself out of the day we ever had to meet.
Are you through with me?

 And when it all goes to hell, (Take this to your grave)
will you be able to tell 
me sorry with a straight face. (I’ll take it to mine)

Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand
Ignorance and prejudice and fear walk hand in hand.

Was it summer when the river ran dry or was it just another dam ?
When the evil of a snowflake in June could still be a source of relief.
” Oh, how I love you . ” I once cried long ago
But I was the one who decided to go
To search beyond the final crest
Though I’d heard it said just birds could fly so high.

As for your cheesy lyrics, what about:

I get a thousand hugs from 10,000 lightning bugs
As they try to teach me how to dance.

WTH ?

I’m not sure what it says about me that I seem to love me some music with a large helping of relationship angst.

Those are some of my favorites too. So I guess it says we have great taste.

Interesting Cook lyrics = awesome
Interesting Cook music= awesome

Now that sounds good to me

If you still want me, please forgive me,
the crown of love is fallen from me.
If you still want me, please forgive me,
because the spark is not within me.

I snuffed it out before my mom walked in the bedroom.

It’s a twisted game
A brief & oft-repeating
Prose that never seems to resonate
Spin the finger of blame
It’s always on the heart that kept on beating
While the other pulled up lame

We’re only honest when we’re sleeping
We’re lying wide awake and dreaming
Wishing that we were someone else
This bed’s as cold as hell
When you’re lying next to me.

The ceiling paints a picture
And everything’s a welcome work of art
Amidst the chaos in the mirror, the lies in lipstick red
_______

I wish the telephone had not been invented
Because I keep picking it up to say
Stupid things to you

The rain has stopped for now
But I know it’s not ended

No sense in trying
I cannot be protected
No sense in worrying
I can’t be protected

Wonderful and sad
How can you be so?

I wish that happiness could just be pretended
The closest thing to that is
A bottle of whiskey dear

I’d write a letter home
But I don’t know where to send it.

Wonderful and sad
How can you be so?

I’m not sure what it says about me that I seem to love me some music with a large helping of relationship angst.

Who put the bop in the bop she bop she bop
Who put the ram in the rama rama ding dong?
Who put the dit in the dit dit dit dit dit
Who was that man? I’d like to shake his hand

LOL

or how about

there she was just a walkin’ down the street
singing do wah diddy diddy do diddy dum
snapping her fingers and tapping her feet
singing do wah diddy diddy do diddy dum

————————
Oh I’ll tell you something
I think you’ll understand
when I feel that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand

———————-
Well shake it up baby now
twist and shout
come on come on come on come on come on baby now
come on and shake it on out
you know you twist-a little girl
you know you twist so fine
come on and twist a little closer now
and let me know that you’re mine

— poetry it ain’t —
