About Me


"And we tried so hard
And we looked so good
And we lived our lives in black
But something about you felt like pain
You were my sunny day rain
You were the clouds in the sky
You were the darkest sky
But your lips spoke gold and honey
That's why i'm happy when it rains
I'm happy when it pours
Look at me enjoying something
That feels like feels like pain"
"She looks like Eva Marie Saint
In 'On The Waterfront'
She reads Simone de Beauvoir
In her American circumstance
Her heart's like crazy paving
Upside down and back to front
She says 'Ooh, it's so hard to love when
Love was your great disappointment'..."
"I wear black on the outside
'Cause black is how I feel on the inside.
And if I seem a little strange,
Well that's because I am..."
"Blind man on a canyon's edge
Of a Panoramic scene
Or maybe I'm a kite
That's flying high & random
Dangling a string
Or slumped over in a vacant room
Head on a stranger's knee
I'm sure back home
They think I've lost my mind."
"Thought I knew myself so well
All the dolls I had
Took my leather off the shelf
Your apocalypse was fab
For a girl who couldn't choose
Between the shower or the bath
And I thought I wouldn't have to be with you
A magazine..."
"She expressed herself in many different ways
Until she lost control again
And walked upon the edge of no escape
And laughed 'I’ve lost control again'
She’s lost control again
She’s lost control..."
"Remember me when you clinch your movie deal
And think of me stuck in my chair that has four wheels
Remember me through flash photography and screams
Remember me, special dreams"
"I'm glad that you're near
And I'm sad when you're here
This is what it's like to be me
I'm glad that you're here
And I'm sad that you're near
This is what it's like to die alone."
"Charlotte sometimes crying for herself
Charlotte sometimes dreams a wall around herself
But it's always with love
With so much love it looks like
Everything else
Of Charlotte sometimes
So far away
Glass sealed and pretty
Charlotte sometimes..."
