Somebody Poisoned the Wishing Well
Now I realize you were beautiful inside

Surviving tidal waves
I still drive myself insane
You got inside my lungs, stole my guts, and ran away
I don’t deserve this. I said nothing more than what I meant
I wish that you could say the same. I wish you could say the same
I wish we could have stayed the same

I knew pain and love the moment I heard your laugh
The sound of a siren: the thrill of a summer wind: intoxicating; musical; lovely
I thanked my lucky stars for every day gone by (by your side)
And every night we felt more alive (love aligned)
Made me realize you were beautiful inside

I guess I’m breaking the rules. Cause I’m not quite gone
I loved you more than you, more than you’ll ever know
I guess I’m not making the cut. You really fucked this up
I’m leaving: leaving forever, it’s time

I knew better from the moment I heard your laugh
The sound of a siren: the chill of a winter wind: intoxicating; musical; deadly
I thanked my lucky stars the day we said goodbye. (It’s alright)
Those sleepless nights, the stupid fights… (Still I tried)
Now I realize you were hideous inside
You’re poison, a venomous voice
You’re a clever one with a silver tongue
I will sing this song and be glad you’re gone
I will sing this song and be okay. I’ll be okay

I knew too well the moment I heard your laugh
The sound of a siren: the chill of a winter wind: intoxicating; musical; deadly

You’re poison, a venomous voice
You’re a clever one with a silver tongue, I will sing this song and be glad you’re gone
(I thanked my lucky stars…)
You’re poison, a venomous voice
(…the day we said goodbye.)
You’re a clever one with a silver tongue
I will sing this song and be okay
