When love leaves, I am so reckless;
Short dresses, long sweaters, lipstick
So red it's a warning flashing in the night
But no ones paying attention
And it ends up on a boys shirt collar anyway.

I hurt myself just to prove I can.
I smoke cigarettes I don't want
And drink liquor that comes in plastic bottles.
I fall asleep drunk, and screaming at love:
"LOOK. YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAN DESTROY ME.
LOOK. I CAN DO IT MYSELF."
