batting my eyes profusely
trying to hold back my joy
i lived for a boy in blue jeans
and i was his queen of heartache
we held hands by day in the sunshine
by night we were so free of life
i lived for that boy and his big dreams
i wished for a life of simplicity
i used to be so in love
my heart swelled until my chest felt like it would explode
i used to be so in love
like a plague it came down
from that day on my feet never touched the ground
i'll bury you in my back yard
along with everything inside
i'll bury myself like a dead one
i'll gouge out my eyes cause they've swelled shut
sometimes things never go away
even when you've wanted them to sink
i never let go of that boy's big wings
the only time i didn't mean goodbye
i used to be so in love
my heart swelled until my chest felt like it would explode
i used to be so in love
like a storm it swept me up
from that day on my feet never touched the ground
and what's left of me now
what do i know how to feel
the fear inside
the hypocritical minds
the violent eyes
and the dying ways i try
so what of love
what love
