My B-side

Being the "Lose-Lose Situation"

Diane sent me 77,000 hugs (I love you, Di), but not even embraces by the thousands could fill my void. Holding the paper numbly, I made a frank promise and to this I will hold true. Although this private declaration of independence proved to be consoling in certain ways, my anger still prevaled as the lead in My Emotions. So I ran a mile hoping to give myself a possibly better reason to feel like crap. In the end, I simply felt a double whammy of sickness. I can’t wait for the past to pass away.

Your lipstick his collar don't bother angel,
I know exactly what goes on 

 When everything you'll get is everything that you've wanted, princess
Well which would you prefer 
My finger on the trigger, or 
(me face down, down across your floor)
Me face down, down across your floor
(me face down, down across your floor) 
Well just so long as this thing's loaded
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head 
This all was only wishful thinkin, 
this all was only wishful thinkin
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head 
This all was only wishful thinkin, 
this all was only wishful thinkin
let's go... 

 Don't bother trying to explain Angel 
I know exactly what goes on when you're on and 
How about I'm outside of your window 
How about I'm outside of your window 
Watchin him keep the details covered 
You're such a sucker (you're such a sucker) 
for a sweet talker 

And will you tell all your friends 
you've got your gun to my head 
This all was only wishful thinkin, 
this all was only wishful thinkin 
(the only thing I regret is that I, I never let you hold me back)
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin, 
this all was only wishful thinkin 

 Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens 
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins 
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me 
I know you well enough to know you never loved me 
(why can't i feel anything from anyone other than you)

A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins 
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know... 

 And all of this was all your fault 
And all of this 

(I stay jealous)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this, 
for this simple reason, I 
just need to keep you in mind 
as something larger than life 
(she'll destroy us all before she's through 
and find a way to blame somebody else)
