lyrics

i wish i could write these feelings in some sort of poetic words,
but all i can think to say is that it hurts;
resembling pain just like a flame resembles astringent gas,
i guess i'll accept what may be coming next but i'm hoping this task may soon pass.
that which doesn't kill me makes me strong so fire away,
i will not return the pain again someday;
you never know someone's beautiful
till they've whispered their breath in your ear,
you never know its all magical
till you look in their eyes and see fear,
but magic fades when its a charade
a game you'll lose if you're serious
‘cause most people aren't willing to play
don't risk your heart and you'll never love,
but i'd feel better to have never have played
than to have lost so much;
i guess to make ourselves feel better,
we twist the truth in knots cuz we're so victimized...like:
why can't you just love me
(he's great and I'm just okay)
I know that I can't compete
(but i swear i wouldn't treat you that way)
(build me up till i believe)
without you there's nothing left
(make me blind to feel or see)
when you leave i lose my...
even the times my eyelids close shut,
i'm still tired when they open again;
like the loneliness i feel in big crowds,
even when i came with friends.
long bus rides depress me,
like talking with friends far away;
or knowing you can't see the person you live for,
for the next few days.
