Romance Is Dead

Romance Is Dead

A Poem by April
"

This song is the second result of my collaboration with the project Dragon Lake. It describes the grief of a heartbroken woman in the frame of satire, trying to prove the world that love doesn't exist any more, at least for her.

You're welcome to listen!


A glass of cheap vodka tastes just like depression -
It hurts to be sober tonight.
The mirror reflects such a hideous expression
That I promptly turn off the light.
Some porno, then casual sex with my hand...
Oh damn! This is something I shouldn't have said.
Why don't you believe that I need no boyfriend -
No problems, no worries, no tears, no regret?
 
Romance is dead,
And so am I,
I can't forget
My perfect lie.
I still recall
The times we had.
Oh well, that's all.
Romance is dead.
 
I can't fall asleep, so I get on the net,
Where I claim to be an online super-w***e,
I find guys like you just to make them all fret,
My tease makes them want me, but they can't get more
Than flirt for some minutes, some sexual tension
And then disconnect. Their muse disappears.
I've had a good time with these cruel intentions -
Enough for today. See you later, my dear.
 
Romance is dead,
And so am I,
I can't forget
My perfect lie.
I still recall
The times we had.
Oh well, that's all.
Romance is dead.
Romance is dead!
 
You say it is stupid, it doesn't make sense,
But you are the first to have buried romance.
