"the capgun cowboy caught playing dress-up"

when I get sad I wrap myself up in songs to make it all seem less real
all the "i loved everything about you that hurts" and the "I won't let them take you"s
somehow make it just a little bit better.
but when I'm happy I'm just wrapped up in thoughts of you
sometimes that just makes me sad and bitter all over again
and the songs turn to "baby I'm bad news" and "widow or divorcee"
I'm embarrassed to say that I love all your mysteries
there are so many things about you that I love not knowing.

I pray that one day you will forgive me for the things I didn't do
and give me the strength to do the things I know I should.
