A Welcome Disaster - Love is fleeting, feeding jackals their trite, and no one knows it but you. My feeble mind simply can't comprehend the way it plays us all in. Everyone handing down life lessons, warning me of the complications ahead. Maybe I should have listened to them. Oh well. I'm convinced I was right - a welcome disaster. This whole city panics. We're on the verge of absolute destruction. I'd be more worried if it wasn't for you, because you've got a deal with Death. Now they say that we're all going under, drowning hope. It's a shame. Wish I cared but I'm sinking already into your soul - a welcome disaster. Please do worry about me - I think I know how to swim. It's just that around you, I lose my patience to breathe. I think this ship is sinking. I'd say it's best we start a fire and watch it burn, go down in flames. This whole city's ruined, and I'm to blame. And I did nothing to change. I could lie and say that I had no chance, but I saw this one coming. Hey, but what can I say? We only learn from mistakes, and girl this one was huge. If I could I'd flood this whole damn planet, I swear, just for one more chance… or a thousand - a welcome disaster.
