a song for my girlfriend emily bc I'm gay and miss her

I was listening to My Favorite Fish by Gus Dapperton and decided to write a song for my girlfrliend, just like Gus wrote for Jess

Enjoy <3


Black and white, yes 
No more colors exist 
In the name of happiness 
I'm trying to get kissed 

I want to be bad but no 
I want to be hurt but no 
I want to be dead but no 
'Cause Emily said so 

Every day I just practice 
Life is so prickly my dear 
What a lovely cactus 
Contains the essence of life 
But only if you get hurt 
And don't bleed only on the inside 
So I decided to hold onto you 
And we bleed together 
As we live too 

Hold me my love 
Because enough sadness is enough 
Tell me that you'll drink your coffee and tea
And don't forget to eat your greens 
So I know you're being you 
But also being a little healthy 
I won't cause a scene 
Because truthfully 
I can't live like, like it means 
Much to me 
But you do 

Black and white, yes  
No more colors exist  
In the name of happiness 
I'm trying to get kissed   

I want to be bad but no  
I want to be hurt but no  
I want to be dead but no  
'Cause Emily said so  

Can't pay much attention 
Please don't force me to function 
You tend to make me feel so ecstatic 
Like a walk through an old attic
When we're together it's just 
So magnetic 
And it's a little bit pathetic 
How much I miss you
It's always a tad too much 
You know I'm not really ascetic
Can't discipline myself when 
It comes down to you 

You pull me in 
And I feel like I'm in a shelter 
I think to myself if not for me 
Then maybe for her 
Hold on tight for the ride
Before we're washed away by the tides 
Swimming in an ocean of emotions that I don't know 
I write words at random so my heart won't let go

Black and white, yes   
No more colors exist   
In the name of happiness 
I'm trying to get kissed     

I want to be bad but no   
I want to be hurt but no   
I want to be dead but no   
'Cause Emily said so   

'Cause Emily says so 
She said no, no to all of that 
And instead pull me in for kisses 
That you won't forget 
And I can't ever say no 
Because she said so
