Smashing Pumpkins - Zero

My reflection, dirty mirror
There's no connection to myself
I'm your lover, I'm your zero
I'm the face in your dreams of glass
So save your prayers
For when we're really gonna need 'em
Throw out your cares and fly

Wanna go for a ride?!

She's the one for me
She's all I really need, oh yeah
Cause she's the one for me

Emptiness is loneliness, and loneliness is cleanliness and cleanliness is godliness, and god is empty just like me!

Intoxicated with the madness, I'm in love with my sadness
Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms
The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth

I never let on, that I was on a sinking ship
I never let on that I was down

You blame yourself, for what you can't ignore
You blame yourself for wanting more

She's the one for me
She's all I really need, oh yeah
She's the one for me
She's my one and only

Yeah... I’m not the best when it comes to writing clop. A valid effort, though.

I wrote this to please Carmine because, you know... he likes all Cupcakes Spin-Offs and such.

SEND HIM YOURS!

Actually... don’t do that. He will get mad at me and then proceed to use a sack of dry, rotten potatoes to clobber me half to death if you do. So please, this is a personal appeal; don’t send him your Cupcakes Spin-Offs. Just your good old HiE and HiEtP Mary Sues. Now that is something that gets him going. You can also ask him to criticize your stories for you; the poor thing is constantly complaining on the chat that he has nothing to do all day and he wished to help new writers.

Funny what happens when you write whilst sleep deprived.
