To the girl Orpheus knew he would die for,
This one
Is for
You
And only for
You.
Fuck everyone else
Fuck Hades and hell
Fuck the Gods
And fuck patience
I can’t wait for you much longer
But I will love you forever
Meet in me in Idaho after I’ve paid for all the debts I owe
And know that I love you longer than the great wall of China (x17)
I’d drive through the night for you. I’d call your mom. And I will love you in all of your forms.
When we get fat and old, I bet I’ll love you even more
When I get too high, and die, I’ll hop over heaven’s gate, and skydive back down to you
Fuck what they’ll think
Fuck what they’ll do
It doesn’t matter, babe
Not as long as I am with you
If you end up in hell, I’ll find you
And bring you back to earth
So you can live out the rest of our days with me
Out in the country
On our flower and twinkie farm
If any viper tries to do you harm
I’ll send them down the river Styx
And if Hades needs a song
I’ll give him a poem he’ll never forget
I’m no Orpheus
But I’ll do what he did
Because you are the lady
That I know
I would
Die
For
Home is you
That’s all I know to be true
My home is you
To the girl I know I would die for,
This one
Is for
You.
