And here we are
The first time that the words spouted out of your mouth caused a drift
some said it would happen
She's a believer, he isn't
"It just can't be done", The people in the church say
but my mind believes different- until now.
"How can lovers be lovers without the foundation of Jesus?!
It's just preposterous"
More words out of more mouths
they cause a drift between me and them this time
I know only one person can decide
but He seems to be absent right now
Maybe this was the answer to my prayer
I have no idea what is going on

Obsessive in nature, I have become
It's possible I'm just noticing after this last one
My heart on my sleeve and I'm sure they can see
I give them my all not thinking of what could be
I should learn my lesson, they all turn out the same
But I have become obsessed with this sick twisted game
Maybe this love story will be different... but who I am kidding?

The sun rose and peeked through my window forcing my eyes open for the day
The dream interrupted, another of you, replays like a movie scene
I force myself up and feel the carpet under my toes, reminding me it was just a dream
Some days, you are all I think about
Other days, you don't even cross my mind
Almost two years have flown by; years I thought would take an eternity
Who are you now?
What do you do with your days you swore would be nothing without me?
I don't miss you
I'm just curious.

thank you for making me feel this way
this is not fair
don't make my heart skip a beat
and then knock the air out of my lungs the next minute
this is why I don't allow myself to feel
this is why I'm so jaded and don't let people in
Everyone says to let it go,
but I don't want to, they just don't know
thank you for making me feel this way

I want what I can't have
Give it to me and I won't take it
Take it away and I can't bear it
Acting like a child, I want it right back
Until it's in my reach again

I didn't want it to be this way
So I played safe and hid away

Those feelings deep down that I ignored
are now guests at my front door

Guess you could say that this is my fault
I just thought that this is how I'd adult

Doing what I please, saying "***** it, why not"
lead me to this day; it was a lesson to be taught.

pain & suffering & feelings too hard to describe
it's not like I'm homesick, nobody even died
why does my heart choose to feel this way
can't I please just make it through the day
without a tear rolling down my cheek
turning my forced smile oblique
my words escape me now
I guess I'll take my bow
