Voltaic Crusher/Undrum to Muted Da - of Montreal

I write a thousand songs for you a day
But I never run out of things to say
You're my Ulysses that I'll never end
Now that I fucked up, lost you, sweet friend

Everything is in trash, and it's my fault
I've destroyed us, I know, it's unrecoverable
If there's a God he will repair your heart
If there's a God, send her an angel
Make him handsome and clever and not crazy
And you notice something wonderful
Someone to love her volcanically

And please, please, please God, don't be a bastard
Christ knows she deserves something nice for a change
Christ knows she deserves something nice for a change

I am a flaw, I'm a mistake
I am fault, I always break
I tried, you don't believe me, but I did 
I tried to mature, be responsible, dot dot dot
But my heart is juvenile
And my character's not so hot

You gave me your hand, I gave you a fist
Please don't lose any sleep over me, baby I hardly exist
You gave me your hand, I gave you a fist
Please don't lose any sleep over me, baby I hardly exist

You gave me everything, still I resist
Please don't lose any sleep over me, baby I hardly exist
I hardly exist


It's hard as an artist to try and write something new, when the exact feelings have already been expressed. Hell, this has been expressed hundreds of times... Why should I bother? Because I have to, that's why. I can't function as a person without expressing what I feel, no matter how many times it already has been.
