"I was outta luck the day the music died." -American Pie (the song)


if i die young
then billy joel lied
because i wasn't good
so i shouldn't have died

if i die young
then this world is cursed
life without me
would be the worst

i'm not being rude
or smug or bragging
but think about it
your life would be lacking

you'd have no one
to answer your questions
to solve all your problems
to be your best friend

i may not be perfect
but no one likes that right?
perfect isn't possible
not in the daylight

so i'm almost perfect
but perfects standards
and anyone who doubts it
it totally absurd

i do it all
and don't you ever forget
if i die young
it's because i was the best.
