Poetry hero

[Verse 1]
I just wanted to come up with a story
About things you've gone through,
And ended up here, cold and lonely,
Because I know and understand you…
I wish I could write it like Shakespeare,
I wish it would make all of them cry,
Your sad life story and my clever lyre.
But in the end, they are gonna die…

[Chorus]
You once laughed at me,
I once laughed at you.
Now I'm your author, and you're my poetry hero…
And all you can be
Is all I can do.
I am your world, your home, I'm your giver…

[Verse 2]
I'm no longer Shakespeare, but Conan Doyle.
The death is being investigated.
You're still breathing. Oh, Melancholy.
All the storylines were created.
Apocalypse is taking place in the world,
Journalists, as usual, work on the spot.
Politicians promise, remember their word.
Who looks down from heaven on all this? God.

[Chorus]
And He's looking at me,
Then He's looking at you.
He's our author, and we are His poetry heroes…
And all we can be
Is all He can do.
We can be the best, the worst or just zeroes.

[Bridge]
Wang Gogh cut off his ear,
I want to cut off my finger,
I need to fight my strongest fear.
But am I really eager?
I want to remember about you again.
But Adonis is not for Venus.
Perhaps I should've written something else.
And drown out my stupid feelings.

[Chorus]
You once laughed at me,
I once laughed at you.
I was your author and you were my poetry hero…
All you used to be
Was all I could do.
I'm no longer your author, but I'm your killer.
You once laughed at me,
I once laughed at you.
Now I'm your author and you're my poetry hero…
And all you can be
Is all I can do.
I am your world, your home, I'm your mirror…
I am your world, your home, I'm your killer…
I am your world, your home, I'm your giver…
I am your world, your home, I'm your mirror…
