.:Slap Me Sane:.
Note- the chorus changes every time, so read the entire thing to get the whole story.
When it started it was just fine,
Just a silly little girl with the world on her mind
and a heart made of fiber glass,
the longer she used it the more it would crack.
And then came along the one who could
Mend the strain,
The brainless little boy unaware of her pain
Her heart propped him up above all,
And so she would fall(so she would fall)
It wasn't the fact that his brain was blind,
couldn't comprehend everything he could see.
It was the fact that the girl had made up her mind
That only he could set her free
She told him
"Slap me silly to slap me sane,
Take a torch to memory lane
The street's air has never tasted so bitter,
Only your love can silence the sting.
And then your breath so sweet can fill my lungs,
restart my everything back to square one.
You could redefine my soul,
You'll never know."
She was only fourteen back then,
just a silly little girl waiting for a true friend
Her sweetheart could have been that guy,
If only he new then maybe he would have tried
But the years went on and everything was gone,
Fragment of a love that was supposed to be strong
ten years have passed and after all,
she broke from the fall(broke from the fall)
Two decades of memories slash at skin,
Twenty years of suffering so vivid, she
Tried covering her scars by rubbing them in sin
Hoping someone could set her free
She told them
"Sleep me silly to sleep me sane,
Take a torch to memory lane
The street's air has never tasted so bitter,
maybe your smoke can silence the sting.
For just a small price I can be what you want and more,
Perhaps it's not just money we'd be looking for.
You could redefine my soul,
You'll never know."
It was a cold December night,
Just a silly little girl trying to get a light
standing by her corner once more,
Sighing at every person who called her a whore
And then the breath of a young man caught her eye,
By her side was someone unlike the normal guy
When it was her name he did call,
In his arms she'd fall (His arms she'd fall)
To think that after all this time,
When she sold herself so much that she forgot her name
she'd meet her former lover with no reason nor rhyme,
And fell for him all the same
He's sobbing,
"Finding you tonight has slapped me sane,
Strolling me down memory lane
With just one look I could remember you,
I'm sorry I can't silence the sting
But I know despite all of the damage we've done,
we can get you to smile like when you were young.
Let's get you out of this cold,
we're going home."
She joins him,
"Your words so sweet have kissed me sane,
Took a torch to memory lane
The street's air has always tasted so bitter,
Your love can surely silence the sting.
And then your breath so sweet can fill my lungs,
restart my everything back to square one.
You can redefine my soul,
I'm glad you know."
