Dear Emily

Dear Emily, leave me alone You keep on crashing my plans and making me choke You're staying up late and bending my thoughts Convincing me everything's something they're not Dear Emily, you're hurting my head Squeezing so tight that my fingers are red You pull me this way and that way and drag me around I just need a second, you're getting too loud I empty my head, it gets lighter and lighter I get up my hopes, they go higher and higher Then you come and you rain on my parade And that's the end of the world again Dear Emily, you don't understand Not every good thing will go right to plan There's disappointment, resentment, and scams You'd be better off staying on land Dear Emily, don't be so dumb They don't really want you the way that you want He doesn't feel the way he says he does Nobody loves you the way that you love I empty my head, it gets lighter and lighter I get up my hopes, they go higher and higher Then you come and you rain on my parade And that's the end of the world again Emily, we both know you start the fires And Emily, you know that I'm not a crier But Emily, I feel my chest getting tighter And Emily, let me be, God, I'm so tired Emily, we both know you start the fires And Emily, you know that I'm not a crier But Emily, I feel my chest getting tighter And Emily, let me be, God, I'm so tired
