Mental Hangover
You can be my
Mental hangover.
You can be my drunken mistake,
For ever.
You can be my
Mental hangover,
For as long as you like,
I'll keep making the same mistake.
With people a little like you.
Dyed hair, originally ginger.
Little bit fucked up,
Cos that's how I like them.
I'll tell you about them,
Because you'll find it funny.
You'll laugh at me.
I'll pretend I'm the stud.
When really, I'm feeling quite shit.
Because whenever I'm with the latest,
I'm imagining you.
But, you'll hear my drunken anecdotes.
You'll hear my struggles to get out the door,
The foul taste of my mouth,
For the rest of the next day.
And you can be my mental hangover.
Always making me cringe at how I screwed up.
Whoopsy, my bad. I'm sorry.
At least a hangover can be got rid of,
With homemade electrolytes.
A pint of water, 8 spoons of sugar, 4 spoons of salt.
I heard somewhere it helps.
And mind over matter, right.
Usually, within twelve hours, it's gone.
But you are my mental hangover,
of 2 months, 2 days and 7 hours.
And no shitty tasting mixture is getting rid of you.
