it's kinda funny, isn't it?
except
it really isn't
it's a horribletwistedironic thing,
and honestly,
i'm not laughing because it's funny
i'm laughing because i don't want to cry
and they always told me
'home is where the heart is, scorpius'
but i'm not quite sure i have one
and yours was always three sizes too big, Al
and i guess this means i don't belong anywhere
and you belong everywhere, huh, Al?
{makes sense to me}
you're absolutely perfect together, you know
she's the golden angel that everyone loves
{except me, but i really don't count, do i?}
and you're the golden saint that everyone loves
{including me}
does that make me the demon, Al?
its not a surprise
after all, if you're golden, i wasn't even in the running
{but we all knew that}
this is no tragedy
this is almost nothing at all
at least, not to you and not to her
{the lovelyhorrible golden angel you're marrying doesn't know that i'd sorta love you if i had a heart}
{except i don't and she won't}
the only one it matters to,
well,
no one cares about me, Al
{because you're a saint and she's an angel and the demon is forgotten in this lovely matrimony}
this path i'm on
it's paved with gold and good intentions
but, hey, we all go to hell
don't we?
well.. i will, anyway
a demon's place is to rot
i'm such a liar, al,
but you knew that, right?
i'm a snake and a bit of an asshole
but i'm the lie you adore
i'm the closest thing to god, sort of
i'm a demon, and maybe i worded it wrong
{the girls used to call me a sex god back at hogwarts}
{they didn't know i was picturing you}
and someone
{in heaven or hell, who the fuck knows}
finds this entertaining
scorpius to stage right!
{thank you for the applause, i'll be here forever}
and if this is entertainment
some sort of game to whoever's up or down stairs
i pity the poor unfortunate souls who take over act two
home is where the heart is, al
she's home to you {don't lie}
and i have no home
{i'm just heartless like that}
