Dear Diary, Dear Diary
Do I have a soul?
Why my dearest no,
You are but crushed coal

Dear Diary, Dear Diary
Do I have said hopes?
Why my dearest no,
you swear by those ropes

Dear Diary, Dear Diary
When will see?
Why my dearest, I didn't know
That you were so naive

Dear Diary, Dear Diary
How large is my heart?
Why my dearest I doubt
You had one from the start
