A few drops of innocence
here and there,
doesn't compensate for the empty feeling,
that deprives you of air.
Because nothing says romance
like a girl crying with a straight face.
Adding a spoonful of experience
here and there,
doesn't prevent you from the tragedy,
or the relief of a confirmed suspicion,
that leaves you hanging from the tree of despair.
Because nothing says romance,
like a girl crying with a straight face.
A pinch of lies and sorrow,
here and there,
doesn't prove everything is the same,
that feeling numb is better than feeling at all.
Because nothing says romance
like a girl crying with a straight face.
