[[this was back when i didn't want to go to prom last year. Emo and whatnot, But still holds truth even now.]]

Hey... So,
I was wondering if you wanted to go
With me
Not just us
Maybe three
or four... or nine
Y'know some friends of mine
And yours of course
And we could dance
And we could sing
-dont worry, i'd pay for everything
I just need someone to bring
Me
Since y'know
I no longer go
To a normal high school
So please don't think im cruel
Or desperate
Or a tool
I just
Need to go
Because my friends will all be there
And i know
What you'll say
"Why does it matter anyway?"
Well this is a special day
And my last crush has a date
And it showed me
Im still not okay

-Hey... So
if you could please cooperate
You're my last hope
And maybe my last 'nope'
But i just need to find a date
And beggars cant be choosers
So i'll have to bring a loser
Or the football praising bruiser
And won't that be just great

Cuz y'know i want
All of the stress
To find a dress
It might not fit well
I might look like hell
But when i ask if it looks good
They'll all say 'yes'
And i want to stand
Among my friends
And i'll smile and pretend
Like i deserve to be with them

But i don't
Its true
You might not see it like i do
But once we were purple
And now they're red
And im just blue

Hey... So
Wouldn't you love to go
I could see us now
You at my side
Trying too hard to hide
That you dont want to be here
As you sip your punch
And check your phone
Wishing you'd stay'd home
To play games with your friends
And enjoy being alone

Hey... I want that too
I want it just as much as you
But this is what i need to do
Its the only time
When red and blue
Become purple again

So please dont give me that glance
Im just asking you to take a chance
And take me to this fucking dance
