Punk rock gay boy save me. Pledge allegiance to the fag that is barely cool enough to be seen with you. Sweep me off of my feet by knocking me down and then picking up my pieces. Buy me cheap beer and leave me to pay for the cab. Have me blow on your tattoos while the flesh is still raw. Make me go down first. Say when you are just too tired to hear my shit and to talk to myself until I calm the fuck down. Find charm in the ways that I can be terrible and gross and mean. Show me how I am beautiful. Spin me around like a record that skips and tastes like whiskey and menthols while we sing the blues with smiles on our faces. Break my heart with a slice like a scalpel so I don't even know it happened until after I bleed out. Come back drunk and crying full of baby, baby, babys and sorry, sorry, sorrys. Love me in a way that most men are scared to consider. Teach me how to sweat and spit and stink with pride. Hold my hand like I am falling. Look at me in a way that makes me know that you are mine. Know, no matter how much you really care for me, when it's time for you to go. Pledge. Sweep. Buy. Have. Make. Say. Find. Show. Spin. Break. Come. Love. Teach. Hold. Look. Know. Punk rock boy let me rescue you. |
