Heather X Eyes Blue Like the Atlantic, but if I wrote it. [🫀]

Heather X Eyes Blue Like the Atlantic

But different and written by moi

I watch your eyes as she walks by

They're brighter than a blue sky; her eyes

I feel like I could die

But maybe if I cry

My tears would shine like her eyes

She looks at you; you look at her

You gave her your sweater

I finally got my own and I pretend that it's better

Than your polyester you lended me in December

Mine's cotton, it's comfortable

But she makes me fucking cold

I watch your eyes as she walks by

They're brighter than a blue sky; her eyes

She loves you, doesn't she?

You love her too and I can see

Her eyes are blue, like the Atlantis

And I'm falling down like the fucking Titanic

I sink to the floor as she sinks in her teeth

And you're smiling, I'm crying

Why couldn't it be me?

I hate how you love her, you hug her

You kiss her and miss her when she's more than six feet away

And I'm six feet under

You don't know or notice

I'm dying, I'm dying, I'm dying, I'm dying

But I guess that's just who I am

I'm better at hiding pain

Than she fucking can

When you talk to me

She's jealous, I can see

And damn it feels good when she stares like that

But why would you ever kiss me?

I'm not even half as pretty

Are you lying, don't you hate me?

Is this real or am I crazy?

I watch your eyes as she walks by

They're brighter than a blue sky; her eyes

I feel like I could fly

But maybe if I smile

I'll look better in your eyes

She looks at you; you look at her

You gave me your sweater
