Pity, take pity on me
‘Cause I’m not have the man that I should be
Always turning to run
From the people I should not be afraid of
And darling, you should know
That I have fantasies about being alone
It’s like love is a lesson
That I can’t learn
So I make the same mistakes at each familiar turn
I know you can’t hold out forever
Waiting on a diamond and a tether
From a boy who won’t swim
But who will dip his toe in
Just to keep you here with him
I’ve got this habit I abhor
When we go out, I’m always watching the door
As if there’s someone I’m going to see
Who could out-do the things that you do to me
I know you can’t hold out forever
Waiting on a diamond and a tether
From a boy who won’t fly
But who will take to the skies
If he thinks you’re about to say goodbye
Pity, take pity on me
‘Cause I’m not half the man that I should be
And I don’t blame you, you’ve had enough
With all these empty promises and countless bluffs
I know you can’t hold out forever
Waiting on a diamond and a tether
From a boy who won’t jump
When he falls in love
He just stands with his toes on the edge
And he waits for it to disappear again
What the fuck are you supposed to do when someone gives you cereal? Shove it in all your orafices and swing around the city in a bear costume? Goddamn. I’ll keep the box if that makes you feel better?
Wow, York. Thanks. Glad to know you really appreciate our friendship.
I’m still in New York, Tumblr. I’m going to find an apartment here for the time being, if I can find one that’s not too expensive.
Wow? Wow, me. Okay. Yeah, wow me.
You leave without telling people shit, say, “I’ll miss you Maine, but I doubt I’ll keep in touch” and don’t return phone calls.
And I’m the horrible, evil man who uses cereal for its purpose. Wow, me. Yeah, I’m the one who doesn’t appreciate our friendship.
Okay.
Fuck that.
So I haven’t gotten the chance to be around online much lately. Mostly because once I get home, I’ve been really tired.
And I sleep.
A lot.
But I’m on today. So that means posts, music, and emails.
Also, if you’re on the small list of people my Tumblr has decided to go batshit insane over and unfollow, I’m sorry. I’m working on fixing this, so if you get a little “bicyclebuiltfortwo is now following you” don’t be all, “OMG YORK UR A DIKK.”
I wouldn’t be following you again if I meant to unfollow you, god damn it.
