Is there an alternative to love that isn't hate?
I've learned there ain't a reason left in trying to wait
Just because she likes a Slayer track or two
Doesn't mean that she's the perfect girl for you
She won't see you any better through her shades
It was intentional for her to be that way
It doesn't matter what she's reading in her book
She won't see you if she doesn't want to look
In the evening you will need to understand
7:30's much too early for her hand
She's not impressed with your discomfort of the world
She's not that worried nihilistic type of girl
The only reason she sat by you in that place
Is because that was the only open space
For the minor cost of nothing you can stop
Looking at her every time she's looking up
She's not your destiny or grandest golden gate
Fate is just coincidence that's given weight
It's irrelevant you see her all the time
There are more common kids that hardly cross your mind
Theres a girl that you sat next to on the train
And she's clouded up the right side of your brain
She's not the goddess that you seem to have appointed
One day she'll finally speak and you'll be disappointed
