I was born in the city
I ain't talkin Berlin
Ballin as a kiddie
Shouts to Pee-Wee Kirkland
I was always ready
I met a lotta girls, man
Most of them were pretty
Some coulda used a Merlin
Wasn't scared of Freddy
Never scared of hurtin
Wasn't feelin pity
Always feelin certain
Confident and steady
Nonchalant and heading
To a constant onslaught
My mantra it was already
A medley of pa**ion and pain
Every single thought was a blast to the brain
Squeeze my fist then relax it again
Laughing/crying
That is the same
There's this girl
This girl I know
Who'd probably say ‘Pain' if you ask for a name
But at the same time she encompa**es life
Beauty, truth, compa**ion and change
No we never gonna change
No it's never gonna stop
No it never even had a start
Cuz before we ever met
And before we ever knew
We existed we shared a heart
I remember from the moment that I met her
It already was forever that I'd known her face
From toes to legs to shoulder blades
I'll hold her hand when I'm blowin away
We'll die holding hands
Two cold bodies next to each other
Obsessed with each other
We could just rot and I'd bet we'd discover
Some way that we could be texting each other
Perplexed and s**ed and vexed with each other
sh**, have we suffered?
Yes
Spite and junk
Fightin drunk
Bitin chunks from each other's flesh
We've taken breaks
Made mistakes
Been poisoned
Lived with afflictions, addictions
Face to face with our fate's embrace
When it's gone we'll miss the friction
I know one truth
The course of love never did run smooth
Of course I knew divorce and feuds
Before I grew to worship you
Who?
Who is this person?
My urban urchin
Curves that swerve like a serpent
So perfect that it's disturbing
Lettuce and bourbon
Medicine, vermin
A combination of calm and drama
Baking cookies while cooking bacon
Exclamation points and commas
No we never gonna change
No it's never gonna stop
No it never even had a start
Cuz before we ever met
And before we ever knew
We existed we shared a heart
I remember from the moment that I met her
It already was forever that I'd known her face
From toes to legs to shoulder blades
I'll hold her hand when I'm blowin away
