This is entirely based off the song Linger by The Cranberries. I love The Cranberries, I was so upset when Dolores died. Anyway, I've written this (I suppose) in her honour. 🖤💙

If you, if you could return- don't let it burn, don't you let it fade. I'm sure I might be rude, but it's just your attitude! It's tearing me apart.. it's ruining every day..

I should've seen it coming.

He was so distant, I should've known something was up.

And I swore, I swore I would be true. And honey, so did you.. so why were you holding her hand? Is that the way we stand? Were you lying all the time? Was it just a game to you?

He promised me.. that ring.. he promised me he would love me and only me.

Then he was there, holding her hand, no ring to be seen.

I guess seasons change, but people don't.

But I'm in so deep.. you know I'm such a fool for you. You've got me wrapped around your finger, do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

Now you're everywhere.

You and her, laughing.

At our old spot at the park, in my favourite cafe, you really salted the wound.

Oh, I thought the world of you. I thought nothing could go wrong, but I was wrong, I was wrong. If you, if you could get by trying not to lie, things wouldn't be so confused, and I wouldn't feel so used! But you always really knew- I just want to be with you..

He always knew I would never love anyone else.

And now he's twisting the knife he embedded so deep in my back.

But I'm in so deep.. you know I'm such a fool for you. You've got me wrapped around your finger, do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

Fuck you, Peter Wentz.

But I'm in so deep.. you know I'm such a fool for you. You've got me wrapped around your finger, do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?
But I'm in so deep.. you know I'm such a fool for you. You've got me wrapped around your finger, do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

Fuck. You.

But I'm in so deep.. you know I'm such a fool for you. You've got me wrapped around your finger, do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

I hope you burn.
