Interlude 7.6 Yellow or Blue?

Verse 1: 

 I never was much and I never claimed to be 

content to blend in the background scenery

just wanted to live a normal life 

college,

 a job 

maybe a wife

she was constantly the talk of the school

I was just some guy and she was the height of cool

and yet we shared that last amazing night 

and now she's gone and nothing's right

I thought it would continue the next day

but others' plans got in the way

Verse 2: 

That night she left, it just was out of the blue

I didn't worry, much 'cause  this was nothing new

and then I hear the  gut-wrenching news 

and I obbessed over cryptic clues

I wonder through this cluttered empty room

and I can't help it, it feels just like a tomb

Take in the scent of her and my thoughts turn black

As I realize... she's not coming back

And here I thought I had her all figured out

Did anyone really know what she was all about?

Chorus:

Was she Yellow or blue? Was she happy or sad? 

Is she just playing a trick or  are things really bad?

Does she want to live? Does she want to die?

or is she just a helium balloon in the sky 

Will she come back or is she gone for good?

How much more have I misunderstood? 

Why did she leave those clues behind

What the hell was on her mind?

Verse 3

There's  can be no doubt she left a legacy 

the pranks she pulled 

will go down in school history

the things she did here change everyone

I wish she could see how much she's done

They tell me to quit to give her up for lost

I can't follow her down the road that she's been tossed 

they say she just doesn't want to be found

and I can't pull her string back to the ground

But still I search, afraid of what I'll find 

But more afraid of leaving her behind

Bridge:

was the labyrinth  too much for her to bear?

Did the strings break, leaving her in open air?

If only I gotten to know her before,

and now it's after and there's no chance anymore

Verse 4:

a poet once said to look upon the ground

to the grass beneath our feet, and perhaps answers, can be found

But it's must of  a mystery as she

there's so many things these leaves could be

the vessel has cracked, if only just a bit

and maybe straight and fast is the only way out of it

and as I see what this small glimpse can tell

I lose some of myself as well

There's so much  about her that I still don't understand

but I'm looking as hard as I can

Chorus 

Was she Yellow or blue? Was she happy or sad? 

Is she just playing a trick or  are things really bad?

Does she want to live? Does she want to die?

or is she just a helium balloon in the sky 

Will she come back or is she gone for good?

How much more have I misunderstood? 

Why did she leave those clues behind

What the hell was on her mind?

Chorus with Bridge:

Was she Yellow or blue? Was she happy or sad? 

was the labyrinth  too much for her to bear?

Is she just playing a trick or  are things really bad?

Did the strings break, leaving her in open air?

Does she want to live? Does she want to die?

or is she just a helium balloon in the sky 

Will she come back or is she gone for good?

If only I gotten to know her before,

and now it's after and there's no chance anymore

How much more have I misunderstood? 

and now it's after and there's no chance anymore

Why did she leave those clues behind

What the hell was on her mind?

Interlude 7.2. Literary Romance

Dear diary    I'm so in love with LiterallyOwMuttl89

I even went to the library and in it sang a love song to LiterallyOwMuttl89  

I know you have read a lot of books 

So I thought I'd go and take a look 

and see what the fuss was about 

And pretty soon, I found out/That these stories that you love so well 

have a common happenstance

I guess you could say I just fell 

for literature's perception of romance

I want to be the Ron to your Hermione 

The Harry to your Ginny

If you be Jane Bennet to my Mr. Bingley 

Or Elizabeth to my Darcy 

Maybe its foolish of me to think/

that the two of us have a chance

But I want to have a literary romance 

I have read the story of the Oddesy 

and how Odysseus' Penople 

Despite how Gods forced him to 

roam 

Waited for him to 

return home 

To love, in a world run amuck 

Cupid and Psyche 

Henry and Clare 

but not Bella and Edward ... cause that just sucks

I want to be the Pudge to your Alaska 

but without the whole dying thing

I want to be the Lancelot to your Guinevere 

but without cheating on the King

Let the Naysays have their say

But I don't want to hear "Won't's" and can't's" 

I want to have a literary romance.

The Fyero to your Elphaba 

The Perseus to your Andromeda

 

The Colin to his non-Katherine 

or the Q to the Margo Roth Spiegleman  

and you say "Don't this can't end well" 

And it's possible I'm crazy as hell 

But I have read too many books you see 

My expectations are not grounded in reality 

I'd know I would like us to take the place of Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase

Because you see in the storybook world, the guy usually gets the girl 

Making a fictional romance last in the real world that's the trick

like Hebe with Hercules (after he passed) 

or Robert Langdon with take your pick

I want to be Lysander to your Hermia

(no faeire magic the real thing)

But I wouldn't be Romeo to your Juliet I want more then an angsty fling 

and you mght think this is just a game, 

That I just want to get into your pants 

But I really want an literally romance 

But I really want an literally romance 

But I really want an literally romance 

But I really want an literally romance 

But I really want an literally romance
