do you want me to cut off my pinky
and send it to you in a candy box
or maybe dig my hand into my chest
tear out my heart and you can do the same
we�ll squish them both into a champagne glass
and then we�ll throw it off the brooklyn bridge
or i could stick a needle in your vein
and inject a sea of milky lovesickness
or i could scream i love you in your face
over and over til i lose my voice
and you go deaf with a ringing in your head
or i could write sonnets til my hands go numb
or maybe you want me to just lie here
and let you do everything or nothing
