Untitled #1

When I was twelve years old
When we were misfits at our school
We swore, one day, that we’d be cool
That one day, we would rule the world.

But time moved forward
And we spoke less, with fewer words
You were a cheerleader
And I was just some geek, some nerd.

Lips are for lies
You looked me in the eye
Put your hand in mine
Promised we would be
                                                side by side.

Lies, lies, lies,
With fingers intertwined
With promises of you and I
You said that we would rule
                                                together.
