Formalities - Mary Beth Mitchell

Hold me tight and never let me go


I don't care if you squeeze so hard I break

As long as you pick up the pieces

And put them into a little brown box

Filled with all our secrets

The ones me never cared to tell our friends

Becuase we'd only talk to each other

But I guess the formalities of this all depends

On if my parents will let a BOY into my room

'Cause even when I'm dead

I'll still be my daddy's little girl

But I can be yours too

If you carry me around in that box

As people look at you funny

And spread rumors about how violently

You killed me

But the truth of the matter is,

When I'm with you is the only time

I am fully alive
