Time for some mass destruction

Oh don't be such a pain and let me jump!
Break my heart and leave me to die
Run the hills like you caught fire
And rub your freedom in the face of those you thought they had you in place
Stand still
Really really still
And then lose it
Dance barefoot
Cry out loud
And smile
For everyone to see
That you are openly unhappy
Push me
Hate me
Tell me I'm everything you despise
But kiss me one last time
And run, darling, run
Stop
Let them think you gave up
Let them say all those things we could never understand
Because, yes, we are beyond insane
The incurable
You can be spring
And I'll be autumn
You can flourish while I decay
Remember how we used to hug for hours
Desperate for that warmth we never felt
You can sing
I'll make some background noise
You don't have to worry about my reckless ways
But please do

Let me be the sun
And please be my moon
To stand in my way
When I decide that it's okay
To burn this ugly world

Show me all the things you call beautiful
So I can remember what it is like to be young
And free
It's seems that not too long ago I was writing about love instead of mass destruction
But in the end I guess there's not that much of a difference except for the fact that I used to at least attempt make SOME sense

And I guess that's pointing to the fact that I have definitely gone mad
Or so it seems

Don't laugh at me like that
Laugh harder
Let's be quiet together
So then we can explode
Like atomic bombs
Light up the sky
Heat up
This cold cold night
Make sure to kiss me one last time
Don't be such a pain
Hurt more
Enough to leave a mark
So that when we jump
And trust me we will jump

No one will dare to forget us.
