A better way to get to know someone
Is to ask what they do at 4am when they are wide awake.
It sure beats
"What's your favorite color?"

4am is when
The deep thoughts come out
When
You start to miss people
And when you truly become yourself.

truth is
i don't really have a choice
in whether or not i fall for you.

youre slowly putting a band-aid on my heart
now im just waiting for you to rip it off when im not looking

i want to spend every waking moment with you, love.

I'm getting tired of always being second best.
I don't want to compete with her anymore
And I shouldn't have to.

Sometimes i wish i was really ugly
so guys wouldn't like me for my body
so they wouldn't pretend to like me for their own selfish pleasures

He told me he liked me because i was hot
i should have ran away then
it would've saved me a lot of trouble.

Sometimes i wish i was blind
so i could see a person for who they really are
not for their physical appearance
so i could fall in love with their mind and not their body

He was so attractive
i couldn't help myself
the only thing between us
was lust and infatuation
which eventually faded.

if i was ugly and blind
lust would not exist
only love.

you treat me like second choice
i am not
i repeat not
a second choice

i'm not one for cursing
but you make me want to curse like a sailor.
