lyrics

You say that I treat you like a book on a shelf. I don't take you out that often because I know that I completed you and that is why you are here. That is the reason you stay here. How awful that must feel.
You said you would be my dream. I could have you every night and if, by morning, I had forgotten you, well, no big deal, it would be all right because you are the reoccurring kind. You are the reoccurring kind. You never really leave my mind.
Are you the love of my lifetime? Because there have been times I have had my doubts. We were just kids when I first kissed you, in the attic of my parents house, and I wish we were there now. It took so long to figure out what this book has been about.
Now I write when I'm away letters that you never read. You said to go explore those other women, the geography of their bodies but there is just one map you'll need. You are a boomerang. You'll see. You will return to me.
You Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will.
Because if you don't, then this book is all lies. If you don't, then my plans would all be ruined. If you don't, I'll start drinking like the way I drank before. And I just won't have a future anymore.
