Symbolism hurts:
Never use white for innocence
Because her shirt was white when she died
And Elysium got there before I could.
Symbolism hurts:
Never use a rose for love
Because once I pricked myself on a thorn
And she kissed it better but now she's gone.
Symbolism hurts:
Never use black for death
I have been there, and it's hazy red
Like when you're losing blood.
(Symbolism hurts:
Never use green for jealousy.
My jealousy is blonde and long
Like her hair)
Symbolism hurts:
Never use a kiss for love
Four years of love
And not one kiss
(Symbolism hurts:
Blue is not sad, blue is not melancholy
His eyes are blue, they are
And I've never seen anything happier)
He is green like the sea,
And I am black like...what color is black?
Don't put me down to symbolism
At least black doesn't hurt the way green does.
