In my chair, I daydream, of your face your cherry cheeks
Love you more, hate myself, I should leave
And I cut my dreams to pieces and toss them on my desk
I was just so done with love, it's made me so depressed
Everything you said, no I won't forget
You're my last chance at love, or else I'm giving up
