Lubo and Rudy, in better times. They were so in love then. -Ed.
Her: "Would you love me no matter what?"
Him: "Sure."
Her: "Would you love me if I were ugly?"
Him: "Probably not."
Her: "What? Why?"
Him: "I probably wouldn't have talked to you at first if you were ugly."
Her: "I would love you if you were ugly."
Him: "No you wouldn't, you would have thought I was weird when I first talked to you at the bar. I mean, I love you now, but at the beginning all I thought was that I wanted to sleep with you. Speaking of..."
Her: "Don't fucking touch me."
So you broke down, trying to leave town
I broke down crying on your return
You left me feeling hopeful
I'll never see your face again
Her: "It'll be OK, I'll only be gone for a while. We can e-mail every day and we can talk every week. You can even come visit me!"
Him: "I don't think I'll be able to, that's a lot of money."
Her: "Will you at least try?"
Him: "Yeah, I'll try. We can Skype, too."
Her: "What's Skype?"
Him: "It's like a video thing where you sign up and talk to each other... I don't know how to describe it, but it's cool."
Her: "So I don't need anything, just sign up and we can talk?"
Him: "Yeah. ...Well, you need a camera."
Her: "Why?"
Him: "...So I can see you. You need a camera to see people."
Her: "Oh, Right. ...That was dumb."
Him: "It was cute."
Her: "Shit, I think that's my flight."
Him: "OK. ...Can you just... not go?"
Her: "You know I have to."
Him: "I know. I'll miss you."
Her: "I miss you too. I love you."
Him: "Fag."
Her: "Shut up."
You stole all the covers and busted my head
You made me such an asshole
I wish we'd never met
Her: "What's wrong?"
Him: "Nothing's wrong."
Her: "You're acting weird, something's wrong."
Him: "It's just... I don't know, nevermind."
Her: "No, what is it?"
Him: "It's just that this isn't really working for me anymore."
Her: "...OK. Why not?"
Him: "I don't know. I'm glad you're back and everything but things are just... different."
Her: "I don't understand, what did I do?"
Him: "It's nothing you did, it's just that things aren't the same. I don't like the way I feel when I'm around you. After you left I just felt-"
Her: "-That's not fair, you know I had no control over that."
Him: "I know, I know, but things are just... different. I'm just over it."
Her: "I thought you said you'd love me no matter what?"
Him: "I guess I was wrong."
I'm through with the headaches
Hiding my hands that tremble like earthquakes
Under the table, under the daytime sky
Good Fucking Bye
