THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF A SONG
ABOUT THE END OF OUR LVIES
HONEY DON'T GET ME WRONG WHEN I SAY
I HOPE YOU DIE SOON
I HOPE YOU LIVE HARD
I HOPE IT'S DARK NOW IN YOUR ROOM
I HOPE YOUR HEART BECOMES STONE
I HOPE IT'S HEAVY
I HOPE IT FEELS LIKE YOU DIED AND THEN YOU DO


IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU
I DON'T WANT ANYONE ELSE TO

ROBOT WORKS GOOD TODAY
YOU CAN SELF-MEDICATE
YOU CAN SWIM THE SEA WITHOUT THE WAVES
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOUR SILVER EYELASHES
I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW THE MERMAID FADES
I KNOW YOU HIDE YOUR LOVE AWAY
SOMEWHERE INSIDE YOUR PERFECT BODY

YOU'RE NOT ALIVE, YOU'RE JUST ALONE
I HOPE YOU DIE SLOW
ON SHINY SLOW
ON SHINY LIES HE MADE YOU BELIEVE
AND THEN HE LEAVES, HE LEAVES, HE LEAVES
AND YOU HAVE NOTHING LEFT
EXCEPT TO COME BACK TO ME

DO YOU FEEL ANYTHING
DO YOU FEEL ANYTHING YET?
I ONLY WANT MY HANDS AROUND YOUR NECK
YOUR SWEET, SWEET BREATH
WHEN YOU DRINK ALL NIGHT
AND SLEEP LIKE THE DEAD

I HOPE I DIE SOON
I'M SO YOUNG IT WOULDN'T HUTY
AND YOU'RE JUST WAITING LIKE A LANDMARK TO GET SAVED
AND MY HEART'S ALREADY STOPPED BEATING
AND I'VE LOVED YOU IN THE MOST PATHETIC WAYS

IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU
I DON'T WANT ANYONE ELSE TO
