Miss Marie

Track 3 - The Danger Contradiction EP 

It's that feeling you get the first time you meet your first love, that giddy excitement you have because you've never felt this way before. But damn, does it feel good. It makes you feel like you're on a cloud up high, good enough to make you write love letters. 

These are the first two letters written to Miss Marie. I've posted ones that were written much later then these, they're on the Prologue to the Epilogue EP. You can find a link to it above.

Lyrics

I fell like snow on a warm day, before it recognized as rain.

Love hit me and I fell for you, and I never knew.

How could I be so Blind? 

In my eyes I could never picture you and I. 

Dear Marie -

I gotta tell you something. I can’t stop thinking about that kiss; it’s got me bugging.

I shunned you for a while due to the rumors and stories. In fact, before we met that night; I was kind of worried.

My mama’s been told me about how you would mess with me, if I started chilling with you she’d say, “She’ll bring you down, just watch and see. She hangs out with the wrong crowd, you don’t know what she’s about, the type that will make you skip class and eventually fail out.”

I knew she had the best intentions, but I had a deficit in attention, it’s what kept me in detention. So I ignored her, had a night I’ll never forget, hanging out with you in secret on the high school steps.

And when we kissed?

It made my heart race, yet all I had was a small taste. So would you maybe want to go on a date?

I know you have a bad rep, but you should know I don’t care. To be honest, I once did. But now I would never d dare. So what do you say, I’ll pick you up around eight or nine, take us to a secluded place where we can see the stars shine.

It’s easy to forget what the world has to offer. But with you I’m reminded, so hit me back.

Love,

The Author

Miss Marie -

I know it’s only been a few days, but that date was something else, it left my mind in a haze.

That first kiss was so incredible; it made hooking up inevitable. But something happened to me that night: I fell in love with you. 

You made me see things from a new perspective; loose ideas that I’ve had for years were finally perfected.

And not to mention the fact, that when I finally got back creativity seethed, you wouldn’t believe how long I’ve been waiting for that.

A new muse, inspired me without breaking my heart. Get me to the boss, no life lost, not even one restart.

The best part is, is that I’ll never have to leave you. Can’t think of a situation where you and I would be through. And that’s true. In my view, we’re like bamboo and glue: strong enough to withstand a kick from a boxing glove wearing kangaroo.

Make me feel like the king of the iron fist. Not the one from RZA though, the one from Tekken if you know what that is. Far from the type that only tries to get with you when drunk, or say that you were just a phase, cause they were stupid and young.

So excuse my formality, but I want to do it proper.

Ms. Juana, will you be my girl?

With love,

The Author

Repeat All

Track 2 - The Danger Contradiction EP

If you've ever had the unfortunate experience of being in a relationship that straight up sucked, but you stayed in it for whatever reason, you'll understand where we're coming from on this track.

You know those relationships: They start off great, but slowly and gradually start to turn to shit. you ignore every single negative aspect of it (even though some are glaringly obvious), until you either, A) Get dumped, and finally see said flaws when you're trying to make yourself feel better, or B) Realize the flaws on your own, and "break free".

I put that in quotes because you'll most likely end up in another relationship just like it, despite your previous experience. The same patterns emerge. The same underhanded hostility aimed at you begins again. It's like forgetting to change a CD, so you end up listening to it again, over and over.

"Wait, didn't we hear this one like five times already?"

(Lyrics)
Let me tell you about this girl I hate, we used to date, a bitch with the gift to manipulate.

I wish I could say it started out great, though I was wrapped around her finger, from the very first day.

I’d drag myself down to Essex, hoping that she’d make a presence, and if she did, we’d scout for bars that seemed extra pretentious.

And could we get in? Hell no. But those were the best I had to dress with.

Fuck - I should’ve been offended.

She’d tell me that she’s better and she’s not.

She’s a listless fucking hipster, and I’m hot.

I only wish that I had seen it before, but I'm signing off. I closed the chapter, shutting the door.

I cut my chains; I broke my leash.

Finally. I’m free.

Well not completely, I think you might’ve missed one.

That one chain that pulls you right back when you think that you’re done.

I cut my chains; I broke my leash.

Finally. I’m free.

Who you trying to convince? It seems you don’t have a problem with blissful ignorance.

Miss Danger, you’re in danger of becoming a stranger to yourself.

I say this and, unfortunately, know this situation well.

A strange form of denial, it’s versatile, and lasts a while. Until the next one comes along and shackles you back up with a smile.

Rinse. Wash. Repeat, same breaking free, though in quotes.

Sing the same song; though I guess this time the chains might be a rope.

The same old story about how you don’t want her back.

Remember however, she was your world; it’s never as easy as that.

She had you counting daisy petals, finding solace in spirits; Amaretto won’t be the same, as much as you try to forget it.

Those bedroom eyes that once hypnotized are now a nightmare. It’s kind of like a train wreck. You try, but can’t help but stare.

Except, you’re the one in it. You tried to avoid it but didn’t. Throughout it you acted so timid, until you were taken past your limit.

By now you have to recognize the patterns; they don’t evolve.

Notice you heard this one before; stuck on repeat all.
