Flopping

I want to stay sad
I want to save face
I just want to appear with some style and grace

But I already know that I won't be down for long
and I know that this set back isn't all wrong

So I want to hold my head high
I want to get back out there
I want to put my black dress on, get up there and start flopping
I want to smile and not think of your face
Cause lets face it babe,
You weren't that great in the first place

Basic Math

If one plus one equals two
and two plus two equals four
then a lonely girl plus a broken heart times a will to start anew must equal zero

Because null and void is all she will ever get
broken scrapes and no new dates will forever keep her in her place
of alone and despair
tragedy and sadness
pity parties and sadness cakes
are her only friends to the date

Her will leaves and so does she
because didn't you know?
Love fixes everything.

The Princess and the Frog


I’m not really upset
I’m not really hurt
Sometimes you have to face the dirt

And sometimes you have to write the corny rhymes
Just to find a reason to smile

One day he’ll come
It’s the only thing keeping me holding on

Kissing another frog doesn’t bother me
Just some practice for my king to be
