* Dedicated to Dashboard Confessional "Remember to Breathe"
-/Genesis 18/ Amanda Bynes – Don't Destroy Me (Not On Valentine's Day)/-----------------
Amanda, my heart is languishing Sodom
abounding in sin
rife with chaos of malcontent at failed rendezvous, conflicted emotions
fondness and disgust at women once dearly beloved
imagination filled with contemptible things like
stealing girls from their guys, stealing a kiss
so I wont be alone anymore...bribing with flattery just to get attention
and the aggregate of these offenses screams
loudly (in your ears)
because I know you can see the disconcerting look in my face
...and its driving your affections away from me
its off-putting
I am forlorn
(at the prospect of another dreary valentine's day)
flanked by two men, equity and justice
I know your intention is to implicate me
then destroy me as retribution
to rain fire of rejection and sulfur of indifference
dissolving everything in its path
but in your mercy let me make this appeal:
If in your judicious assessment you discover fifty sincere emotions
would you consider my hand in marriage?
..forgive me for my forwardness – but what about
forty five earnest intentions?
would that be enough to kiss me and call me your man?
Amanda, Im sorry pardon my untoward nagging:
If you found forty pure sympathies,
would you let me drive you to a nice restaurant,
discussing our future over candlelit salmon?
If I may escape with more pestering – What if you only found in me
thirty honorable desires?
might you entertain the thought of us watching Avatar together?
My true apologies, but I beg you to let me ask your reaction
to only twenty upright musings within me?
would you consider eating lunch with me...and perhaps
getting to know me better?
I promise this will be my last utterance...what if you only found ten
decent things about me?
would you at least get coffee with me?
Oh Amanda,
I just want a pleasant Valentine's Day with you
please don't destroy and desert
kill and kick dust on
break a heart– and smile...
I need you to love me, Amanda please
acquit me of these past evils,
see the apprehensive soul inside me, just scared of being alone
and upset
but not worthy of annihilation
(Please baby, wed me... Turn my Sodom into the Promised Land!)
(Make my Valentine's Day a Smashing Success!)
----------------------------Genesis 18:16-33
When the men got up to leave, they looked down toward Sodom, and Abraham walked along with them to see them on their way. Then the LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do? Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and all nations on earth will be blessed through him. For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, so that the LORD will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him." Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."
The men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the LORD. Then Abraham approached him and said: "Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked? What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it? Far be it from you to do such a thing—to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Far be it from you! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?" The LORD said, "If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake." Then Abraham spoke up again: "Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes, what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city because of five people?" "If I find forty-five there," he said, "I will not destroy it." Once again he spoke to him, "What if only forty are found there?" He said, "For the sake of forty, I will not do it." Then he said, "May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?" He answered, "I will not do it if I find thirty there." Abraham said, "Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?" He said, "For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it." Then he said, "May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more. What if only ten can be found there?" He answered, "For the sake of ten, I will not destroy it." When the LORD had finished speaking with Abraham, he left, and Abraham returned home
-----Remember to Breathe Lyrics
She fixes her lips they
Always look perfect
Never a smudged line
Never too much
I try on my blue shirt
She told me she liked it, once
She wonders what I'll wear
She knows just what she'll wear
She always wears blue
So sneakers or flip flops
I'm starting to panic, wait wait
Remember she asked you
Remember to
Breathe
And everything will be okay
Okay [x2]
Alright [x6]
Okay
