Lead Poisoning

[Verse 1]
I fell in love again
September tends to be so cruel
He says my name and then
Blah-blah, so embarrassing
But then he came and leaned in
And asks have I seen how it rains in the plains

[Verse 2]
Says he could take me there
He’s handsome as the day is long
All the while, inching his way in
Like summer stumbling to a fall
We sink into the carpet
Already wet with November’s rain, rain

[Verse 3]
I only bleed for him
Mascara running like a champion
He says my name and then
I come so hard I’d marry him
But then nirvana leaned in
And I lost myself again to the rain

[Verse 4]
He asks not "if" but "when"
Blah-blah, something meaningful
I don’t weave the thread
Just run my hands along it
But if I did, then hell
I’d spar with death to skip your name

[Verse 5]
I can see the end
In the beginning of everything
So I just play pretend
Like I don’t watch you leaving
But you were never there
Doctors blame the lead poisoning
