Theme Songs

In Poetry, Songs on July 9, 2012 at 8:35 pm
A few years ago I dated a guy who used to enjoy watching wrestling. I never got into it, but I enjoyed that the wrestlers would have theme songs that they would enter the arena with. I thought about what my theme song would be. I have created two versions one from an ex-lover and one from me. Think of these as having strong metal vocals, guitar, and drums. Now keep in mind this is more persona instead of who I really am. My preference is the ex’s version, but I wanted one for me to sing, so I did both.
   
You’re my horror story. I’m your horror story.
My worst dream come true. Your worst dream come true.
You’re my horror story. I’m your horror story.
I hate everything about you. I love everything that I do.
   
There was a time you were my love. You used to think we were in love.
You were all that I dreamed of. I shot you down like a dove.
Heart-broken, it’s tough to move on. I am happy you are gone.
It even hurts now that you’re gone. Now I rejoice til dawn.
   
You’re my horror story. I’m your horror story.
My worst dream come true. Your worst dream come true.
You’re my horror story. I’m your horror story.
I hate everything about you. I love everything that I do.
   
Wounded forever from your cold embrace. Your damaged soul leaves a trace.
You treated me like a disgrace. I still would love to smack your face.
I will never be the same again. The ridding of you brought me Zen.
You are poison to all men. You will never achieve such pleasure again.
   
You’re my horror story. I’m your horror story.
My worst dream come true. Your worst dream come true.
You’re my horror story. I’m your horror story.
I hate everything, hate everything, I hate everything about you. I love everything that I do.
