You wanted to wear your hair like Laura
But you prayed for a better fate
You ate his flesh and drank his blood
Held your breath amidst the flood
Hoping for better days
Still say you met him at the party
Told your friends that he stole your heart
In slurred words and beer breathed kisses
You sure fell apart
The dust collects on your front porch
You've seen the sunrise twice before
Spent this year collecting tears
Young love, tattoos, photos, beer
But you're aching for more
Cause when you smile you know I smile too
It's been a while since I've seen you...
