Pull up to an electronic wrought-iron gate;
You've got gold leaf upon your door,
My car's from 1994,
Look at the palace that you own,
Sure, it's a house--but it's not home.
Smiling at you, though I want to smash your face;
You're so pretentious that it hurts,
You like to poke me where it hurts,
I'm sure your husband gets around,
But don't let the bastard get you down.
Cleaning your pool, feeding your koi,
I don't even know why I'm here.
Oh wait, I do; I'm here because I need money.
In this foreign mansion, I feel so alone, locked away from everybody else.
Something must be wrong in living here--in Arcadia Nouveaux!
Fine then, lady, I don't really even care.
Oh, you'll regret it all someday,
Living six tax brackets away,
That's really all I have to say...
Now I'm leaving, finally I'm going home.
Leaving Arcadia Nouveaux.

You're like a child throwing rocks at the sails,
You're like a Caesar as he's entering Gaul,
Like an Alzheimer's patient hitting his nurse,
Just like an animal that hasn't been trained.
You are an angel God was casting away,
I know you warned me not to count on your love,
But when you touched me and my heart went aflame,
I was reliant on your dutiful gaze,
And then you made me lose the thing that I sought in you.
I laid the minefield and I went for a stroll,
I underestimated how sick you were,
In my naivete I set myself up,
I was a fool, and you were corrupt.
Oh, Andy, baby, please try and understant:
I can't forgive you, it's the way that I am.

Don Kongo recommends:
Love songs are so common these days. But . MTVGhost's Dystopio EP is a great inversion of this idea; it shows the decline of an unhealthy relationship, and the writing is powerful, yet simple.
