you were a lot cooler ten years ago

speak my mind
cover thoughts in dry ice
half of that time I'm living half my half life
I carry trust like a bombshell,
and love like a knife

she bought me 10 red rubies yesterday
with hearts engraved, with golden plates
she said her heart is in one of them
and if I chose the right one, I get
to be her date

I chose the 7th one, betting on God
she said her heart was in the 6th
but my fate was fixed
a piece was in all 10

I met you on the coldest day of the year.
you brought angels in your eyes
but all I had was christmas ornaments

I said hello and raised my hand
telling God to count to 5

when I said the hard work was done
I was hard at work, so
you could have some fun
and alone anyone would have turned to stone
and your concrete beliefs slipped through the cracks

will you ever get them back?
