"Show me a hero and I'll write you a tragedy."- F. Scott Fitzgerald


The is a boy for whom my feelings are strong
Together everyone says we belong
But there is another who once held my heart
But my feelings for him have yet to depart

I used to find flatter in owning their infatuation
But it has grown into an awkward situation
But as much as I know they don’t hate each other
Even though they know they’re the other lover

The sounds of horror movies fill my ears
But I no longer possess those fears
I have two boys to take the fall
For me every time they hear my call

I try to say goodbye but there are word I cannot say
Word about all those old times we used to play
I still love him as much as it hurts to admit
Just as the feeling burnt out once again they lit

My other lovers are like day and night
In their heads they plan the fight
For I am the prize of their silly war
A war in which has no meaning for me anymore

The boy I love doesn’t feel the same
He wants to get over me avoid the pain
Our love we shared for over a year
To speak out we both held the fear

My other lover has an innocent soul
A fellow lover of classic rock and roll
A boy as pure as the first snow
I’m still sorry I tried to let you go

They both scream at a god they don’t believe in
Asking where he has been
For life has given them the upper hand
But they don’t believe it they don’t understand

As much as it pains me to have a second lover
It’s like a scar which I can’t cover
But with scars come memories good and bad
The thought of getting rid of one makes me sad
They say I’m undecided a tease a s***
But I’m just a confused nut
Do I choose boy a or b
The one who stimulated me or the one who made me happy

My true love is the one who chooses me
The one who asks for us to be
Whomever is he shall be shouldn’t have much pride
For by myself I don’t think I can decide

There will be no winner of a war
I am not person worth fighting for
Can you love two people at the same time
What will happen when the church bells begin to chime

So make up your mind and speak it
I’ve already begun a love-full fit
What I feel is not what I say
But nobody cares anyway

You know who you are
You’re not too far
Speak to me other lovers once again
I think we should only be friends
