We have not been so moved by a movie since Elephant Man At the risk of sounding patronizing to you, Meryl I have to say, that I truly believe your performance as Sophie will rank As one of the all time great performances by an actress on film Thank you Should it be you, my child Who never asked me To be shat out of a vag? As your icecaps melt, Daddy belts out half-hits To a fucked few; they don't even know you It's amazing how pliable, baby's skull, when you just pull And mold with school and work and chores Until their fucking brains looks just like yours And when you gaze at your iPad Like one would smile at a present dad I can only hope that, one fine day You'll look at me like that instead If I could get up out of this bed To hell with everyone else, little girl, I choose you Blue eyes, we'll get through Faded days fade away We'll burn down this home And make our own someday Death to everyone else, little girl I choose you. If you only knew Jesus lied. Suicide rang true. Oh, no Fuck no, I chose you Or... Should it be you, my love? I want you more than redemption. If there's heaven without you I'll meet you in hell Where at least we'll have time to fuck Now I'm a Rom-Com McConaughey Third act haunted by montage memories I vasectomize my crystal ball When I see it all, forsee it all, I foresee it all Knock, knock, knock on our front door It's a bag lady with bags under her eyes Needing just one more fix But that's a lie of a future; my father instilled me with his So to hell with everything else, baby girl, I choose you When we said I do Beneath your sheets, you flooded me As I drown, I will not take you with me The pigs don't understand why I choose you. What I just can't do Is walk away from hallowed days If you let me in, I choose you And it occurs to me That when I was just two or three My mother said, "Your daddy scares me..." "He scares me. Maxie, choose between." To thee with open ears, I choose you If I can, you too From holy lands to human brains They'll divide your guts to feed the rat race They grin through gnashing teeth And they make us choose; the one thing we can't do I fell in love with all of you And if I have to... ...I choose you
