The Romantic Masochist

A Typo (www.theretronaut.com)


Valentine's Day was made for this.

A song perfect for this day of love and relationships and perfect for a second album.

This a song about the purest love for someone: altgoth love.
Unrequited love.

This is a love song for you.












It's called:


The Romantic Masochist

This is a song I wrote about a lovely relationship.
It might have needed more hammer.
Please don’t touch me,
Deny me your tender kiss
Because I’m your romantic masochist
Don’t put me out my misery
Because it’s what makes me, me
Your static hard-line stare
Only says to me you care
I’m Hurtin’,  I am Hurtin
But to me, it’s just flirtin
Don’t put me out my misery
Because it’s what makes me, me
Please don’t touch me,
Deny me your tender kiss
Because I’m your romantic masochist
My spirit is a glass blown
Ornament never shown
With a breath, shatter me
I’ll crawl on it, hand ‘n knee
Don’t put me out my misery
Because it’s what makes me, me
I need you to hammer
Home the lover
With a claw hammer
From the shed
Take the hammer
Take the hammer
Hammer home the lover
Until it’s over
Until it’s done
Smell of desperate sweat
Polishing tarnished regret
I am broken and I’m done
But I’ve had, so much fun
Don’t put me out my misery
Because it’s what makes me, me
Please don’t touch me,
Deny me your tender kiss
Because I’m your romantic masochist
