Sitting at the Chinese Buffet.
Chinese Buffet

I sit and fatten up
at the Chinese buffet on main street
I fill my plate with cheese wonton's
and take a seat

A pretty girl walks in,
I know her and her ugly friend
I see through her bullshit.

I once had a chance with her
she was a cunt and didn't
understand I was busy
and not a loser like her dead man.

She had lost her previous lover
and went through a life experience
which
would usually
damage someone forever.

she doesn't notice me, good
she has taken on a new
but former boyfriend of hers and
she is pregnant
4 months.

nobody sees the situation clearly
because they feel such sympathy for her
but I am a damaged and fucked up boy
and I've seen much worse.

he was her go-to and she moved on
far to quickly to actually go through
the stages of living with the trauma
of losing the "love of her life."

she never loved him,
she was just fucking him while on
a lunch break from her true lover.

I pay and leave
she still doesn't notice me.
good.
