and there we go instead a tease that mocks the beggar,
it looks so flawless,
i've seen them batt their eyes and come a dime-a-dozen,
just take two steps back.

hold me.
no, not you but the other,
the one with the rags on.

hold me.
substitute rain with some poison and drink to the sequel.

torching, torching.

you seem withdrawn and plushed until you talk to others,
wish i'd been gift-wrapped.
just hope to catch a gaze and just because it's chipping,
doesn't mean it's useless.

somehow i reduced,
and a surgeon told me it's no good,
you'll have to double your intake,
and the risk?
hearts were made for cigarettes,
little girls love to light up.

    I'm wondering if this song is a[twisted] parody of "Romeo and Juliet" and possibly "The Prince and the Pauper."

    There are two lines that make me think this.

    "Substitute rain with some poison and drink to the sequel." - I don't think i need to really explain this. amirite?

    and:

    "Hold me. No, not you, but the other. The one with the rags on." -see? xD

    Um.

    Um.

    I really really like this song musically, and another thing is that it really kind of sounds like a weird love story. shrug

    Don't have enough thought out to make it line-by-line like usual though...
