Bad country

The world trade center is gone
War is coming
she left me again
though she never came home in the first place
I almost died
I wrecked my car
I can afford a new one
I don't want a new car
I was happy with my old car
I was happy with a world at peace.
I was happy with my old life
I was happy with her.
I was happy goddamn it.
I don't have a dog because I'm allergic to dog hair
and I don't have a yard for it
And that's pretty much the same reason she had for leaving me.
She's afraid I'd pee on her rug I guess.
Maybe I'm not housebroken.
If I had a dog I'm sure it would have gotten hit by a car
If I had a cat it would have bit me
destroyed my couch
and had 10 kittens I'd need to give away
I lost my old job
but I've got a new one
though I can't think about work at all right now
I'm losing it.
I guess this makes a shitty country song.
Don't love her guys.
Don't love her when she's scared.
And don't believe for a minute that she loves me.
Because if she did, she'd never push me away.
Which means she only loved how I loved her.
And she doesn't even know me.
And I wish that made it hurt less.
But it only hurts more.
she left me again
though she never came home in the first place
I almost died
