Gazing at the stars, |
sitting in the dark. |
Wishing for my pair, |
I am a lonely heart. |
I had my first big crush, |
I thought I was in love. |
Instead I was crushed, |
and ended feeling dumb. |
I tried to search my school, |
and lo I turned up empty, |
No fellow romantics, |
though stupidity aplenty. |
Rejection upon rejection, |
each time it was a no, |
got it into my skull, |
that I was meant to be alone. |
I took to the net, |
I gave those girls my heart, |
I thought I was in love, |
but they ripped my heart apart. |
Time and time again, |
the story of my life, |
though I like girls, |
I am never liked. |
Then a glimmer of hope, |
or so it appeared, |
Perhaps there was some romance, |
in a Serteen girl! |
A bad excuse for a prom, |
where I made a bad date, |
refusing there to dance |
to music of bad taste. |
What's with all the sex? |
What happened to the romance? |
What's with all the bootie? |
What happened to the slow dance? |
Teach me how to waltz, |
Teach me how to fox trot, |
hand me a dance partner, |
you'll see I'll smile lots. |
And through all the poetry, |
and the songs that I wrote, |
I returned to the net, |
and again, my heart was broke. |
And when all of it is done, |
I'm back to the start, |
for when it's all come and gone, |
I'm still a lonely heart. |
