Valentine
Verse
If I was your Valentine
I'd give you a dead rose
In a bowl of broken glass
With a fake diamond at the bottom
For your avaricious ass
Verse
If I was your Valentine
I'd buy you a gilded ladder
That you could climb
Into those circles that really matter
High in the sky-you'd be free to fly
And live life carelessly...
Chorus:
But I'm not your Valentine
And it's a damn good thing
And I'm feeling fine, fine fine
Not that you'd care
Verse
If I was your Valentine
I'd buy you the finest chocolates
And I'd put this emptiness inside
They'd be like tiny, tasty coffins
For all the sweet, sweet memories that died
Chorus:
But I'm not your Valentine
And it's a damn good thing
And I'm feeling fine (5x)
Not that you'd care!
