manifest destiny and tell me you love me
Im sorry I only can accept that from those at sea
And I only wallow in pain for half a decade
If I expect the vampiric charade not to fade
So excuse me my dear for shedding few tears
but you knew of my fears and the skeleton years
and you can't expect much from a girl lost in lust
to a boy somewhat young and a head not quite there
One day she might lose it and get on his ship
and sail away far from keys and guitars
But most likely she'll haunt you because she wont even choose
the boy to whom you thought you'd most likely lose.
But there's a secret in the telling if you listen quite well
because the girl in question for which you "fell"
will know all along that you're going to be fine
you're going to be better and better in time
and maybe just maybe she knew you were best
without the distractions of any tempest
but its a lot easier to move on in hate
so she'll let you think that she's doing great
because in reality you knew all along
you weren't really ever the one in her song
and maybe she doesn't exactly know who it's for, for sure
but more likely a pirate than a commodore.
