Poetic, cynical, and grim
His heart does nothing on a whim
But when she's standing close to him
He longs to feel her touch
Her charm and sex appeal her tool
To have her fun albeit cruel
And though she tries to play it cool
She cares a bit too much
Self-loathing, narcissistic
Self-indulgent, pessimistic
Selflessness unrealistic
Can't play any tricks
Realize we scrutinize
Witness to transparent lies
Cold behind our smiling eyes
Oil and water don't mix!
A cresting wave of pure devotion
Has swept us out into the ocean
Now of this thing we've set in motion
I have no control!
The mind, the heart it won't set free
For all the things we seem to be
Won't coalesce so easily
Our love cannot be whole!
Self-loathing, narcissistic
Self-indulgent, pessimistic
Selflessness unrealistic
Can't play any tricks
Realize we scrutinize
Witness to transparent lies
Cold behind our smiling eyes
Oil and water don't mix!
Please understand now if you can
The pointless race that we both ran
We couldn't ever hope to plan
To make each other right!
We've been given one great chance
To know existence at a glance
Don't miss it for some circumstance
That may not come to light...
Self-loathing, narcissistic
Self-indulgent, pessimistic
Selflessness unrealistic
Can't play any tricks
Realize we scrutinize
Witness to transparent lies
Cold behind our smiling eyes
Oil and water don't mix!
