for you

I would die for you.

I’d throw myself into fire
To fetch flowers you admire
I’d carve your name into my skin
With a poisonous and rusty pin

You’d cancel our first date
Throw away the gifts I made
Leave my messages unread
Forget me on an empty street

I’d swallow acid, turn to dust,
Walk on nails and broken glass
I’d throw myself from moving car,
I’d fight for you a hopeless war

You’d cover our pictures gray,
You’d forget about my birthday
You’d steal my jacket for the night
Without ever saying “thanks” or “bye”

I’d pay for your every cheque,
I’d kiss you gently on the neck
Hold you tightly to my chest
Keep the guard when you rest

You’d betray me on first chance
Dismiss me on quick glance
Punch me in my guts
Let me die by thousand cuts

I can only wish that
You could be for somebody
What I would be for you
