Diary Lyrics
I used a screwdriver
I couldn't find the key
I had to know your secrets
The thoughts you keep from me
I read how you resent me
You even dreamed that I was dead
You said, you thought that I'd look stunning
With a bullet in my head
It's too bizarre to believe
You can't be talkin' ‘bout me
That's the way I have to read it
In your diary
Now we can fight if you want to
Unhappily ever after
Or, you can just tell me
To my face, if you think I'm such a bastard
I knew you weren't happy
Yeah but who'd of guessed of this
To read that you were planning
To betray me with a kiss
You'll probably just leave me, and I'll fall apart
Might as well just kill me
Why don't you finish what you started
I couldn't find the key
I had to know your secrets
The thoughts you keep from me
You even dreamed that I was dead
You said, you thought that I'd look stunning
With a bullet in my head
You can't be talkin' ‘bout me
That's the way I have to read it
In your diary
Unhappily ever after
Or, you can just tell me
To my face, if you think I'm such a bastard
Yeah but who'd of guessed of this
To read that you were planning
To betray me with a kiss
Might as well just kill me
Why don't you finish what you started
