The night before we had discussed it extensively over the phone That was where me and melanie kept our relationship safe Revelations took place during commercial breaks And we'd say we were running away and settling In the theatre where they shot david letterman Our only hope for some understanding He'd take care of us,??? parents But the marriage itself It was hurried and casual I don't know where she came up the ritual After the bell and before second period Out in the hall she gave me a petal We swalloed to pieces of flowers together And then we were married Until she said one of us lied to the other That meant that the petals inside us were dead I got married I got scared to d**h I got sick From all the petals i haven't eaten Say yes to me, take this??? in destiny Say i do, make me believe it Ten months of marriage and no consummation Right there for the taking This scared 7th grader could not kiss her Just the thought of first base And surprise, i'm MIA from the stadium ??? and greenside, an open drainage pipe, beckoning inside ??? waiting, i pussied out nervous Alone, above ground, to the place where the sewers resurfaced i walked Afraid of the dark, afraid i'd stay pushing away what i wanted But clearly more fearful of acting, of getting it Behind the library we sat together And she liked the veins in my wrist, she touched them Her first boyfriend bill, before his expulsion Brought her here for what she called mouthrape So i never tried it, beside her afraid I saw her a year ago, might have been more She was working at janda, a co*kiesville florist Said nothing of course, tongue sore from the biting Well aware of the corpse of those petals inside me I got married I got scared to d**h I got sick From all the petals i haven't eaten Say yes to me, take this??? in destiny Say i do, make me believe it
