lyrics

I tossed and turned in my bed
to see what my yearly horoscope said.
My spirits took a deep dive and hid when I read
that this time next year I could be happily wed.

Pray to the gods that this isn't true.
What's a half a year? I haven't even met you.
I am scared, unprepared. I can't say "I do".
I have sworn off love to stay attached to my youth.

Good things come to those who wait...
(I got what I want. Oh, I hope this is a metaphor!)
I have to let go and not dwell on thought...
(2014 will surely be the death of me)

Cuz -
You are
my deepest fear
and you are
my weakest link
and you are
my unknown.
Can't I just live my life forever alone?

I don't like feeling left out
but the universe don't speak English, just a few vowels.
I will try to see the positive and not feel so goddamn down,
but this uncharted terrain makes me cringe at the sound.

Could I possibly fall that hard?
Or will I turn neurotic and reopen my scars?
Life is short in which we play no small parts but
if I don't protect it, who will guard my heart?
