Pretty Tony (remastered, in B Minor)

why are some people only good at long good bye's from far proximities?

perhaps it's due to the candy in my pocket 
and I know that potential broken hearts have sweet tooths and butterscotch is a good enough reason to hold on a little longer

can someone come along 
and resurrect what's been left to rest
in the depths of my chest

it's hard to come up with good art 
that isn't pulled from the sickest parts 
of your mind

trying to find the closest ways to paint the rainiest days 
under the closest thing that resembles shelter at the time 
memories of the coldest winds remind me of the fear i felt and the prayers i knelt hoping someone would come offer me a sweater

the clock strikes 12 and it's how funny how you don't feel any different
i fell in love with too many girls 
who knew how to take more hits than me

funny moments where we try to forge falling in love

roaming through college campuses denying the books in your backpack

the sun sets early around this time of year 
there are more hours to appreciate the hard reality 
that there's no one around to help you take your clothes off

waking up to the window closed 
and no known name yet for her,

the panties she left on my bathroom floor when she decided
she wouldn't pretend to be on her period anymore 
open more doors for me to walk through 
try to figure what may have been foxy brown's favorite chair to sit and contemplate the perfect murder

she knows she can smell
it everytime someone gives her chocolate 
and it makes her vomit

bleach and amnesia can't seem to get the stains out
i wasn't afraid when she told her i reminded her of someone
that could write her name well
