Tragic Girl

I want you so bad



Your touch is magic





I love you so much

You sad, sad girl

You're just killin' yourself

and I can't be a partner to that

You dear, dear, girl

Vulnerable helpless soul



You're lost to me

You're so beautiful

When you're drunk and pukin'

I want to care for you

You dear lost soul

lipstick smeared across your face

your breath is barf

I've got to let you go



But you're a 1000 times alive

a 1000 times the girl

You're just killing yourself

and I can't go with you

I can't tie(?) myself to that

I have to let you go

and watch you sink before my eyes

I can't bring myself to say the words

but you know... you know

You're falling apart before my eyes





I can't go on with you



You're a tragic girl

You lead a tragic life (I'm your sober boy)

I'm just meant to be

You're latest tragedy

Goodbye tragic girl

goodbye tragic life

I need to be alone

and live inside myself

You make me want to cry

You make me want to run

to or away from

That I never know



You're so beautiful when you're dying



I just can't do it

Things that seem fishy

baby needs more



Dondo needs more



Maria doing drugs while pregnant
