bestest girl...and i love her so

#007 - The Coolest Girl - 2002

This one was written for someone really specific and was kind of what kick started the whole "Emotional Masochism" concept album. I mentioned that album before but the concept is that it's a portrait of a relationship and where it starts off exciting and new and then deteriorates as the album progresses. More on that in posts to come. The idea was that this would kick off the album with the relationship being in the pre-relationship state where one person is amazed by another and etc. This is a completely new recording as opposed to the demo from 2002-2003 and it needs some mixing work in the weeks to come but you should get the idea what I'm going for...

"The Coolest Girl"

I’m here all alone and I’m thinking of her

Cuz when she’s not here my whole world is a blur

Of pain self-destruction and unwanted doom

I just sit writing letters to her in my room

When she’s around all the pain melts away

It channels my sadness and makes it okay

I can finally see all the good in the world

And that’s why I say she’s the world’s coolest girl

Coolest Girl (that I’ve ever seen)

Rocks my world (this must be a dream)

Bestest Girl (I love her so)

In the world (and I want her to know)

I can’t quit shaking when I look in her eyes

Cuz I get so nervous when I try to disguise

All of these feelings that puncture my heart

So I bite my tongue as she tears me apart

She is too perfect in too many ways

So now I just sit around counting the days

Until I can finally say that she’s mine

So come on little girlie quit wasting my time

Coolest Girl (that I’ve ever seen)

Rocks my world (this must be a dream)

Bestest Girl (I love her so)

In the world (and I want her to know)

I really should tell her I think I’m in love

with everything that she says and that she does

She is the reason I sit here and sing

And I think she’s the only one who can bring

A smile to my face when there are tears in my eyes

Without her I’d crumble, without her I’d die

I’d call her and tell her my thoughts but I’m scared

That maybe she’ll push me away without care

Coolest Girl (that I’ve ever seen)

Rocks my world (this must be a dream)

Bestest Girl (I love her so)

In the world (and I want her to know)
