She's a strange one
And sometimes I think she likes
To play dumb
And sometimes I think she likes
To play the broken little bird
And she can twist whatever words
I dare to utter
She gives you that look, like butter
Wouldn't melt
Like all that time you spent
With her means the world
And she's a transfixing girl
She can make your heart feel alive
She'll make your soul feel numb
And I'm telling you, she's a strange one.

And she did leave me
Speechless
It's not often I become as
Weak as this
But I can't tell what advice to
Bring her
But I can tell her panics always
Linger
With this boy. He's always
To be coy
Baby he's going to leave you
(But yet you continue) -
Maybe Yes; you have an
Expiration date
And I'm at least glad you didn't
Realise too late
I know my girl, and detachment
Won't swing
It's terrifying to face it,
To really bring
Yourself to acknowledgment
I know the feeling
If you find your solution -
I'll be left reeling.

Her hands over her streaking face
She screams
Don't look at me
And good god I look at her
I look past all that and I see
Underneath scratches and ticks
My god she's as lonely as me.

I choose you.
You and your stupid mood swings
your ridiculous hair
your awkward smile.

I choose you.
You and your crumpled shirts
your genuine laugh
your twinkling eyes.

I  choose you.
You and your smug face
your long fingers
your bruised knees.

I choose you.
You and your strange mind
your lame jokes
your uncanny ability to **** me off.

I choose you.
I have always chosen you.
I will always choose you.
Nothing will ever change that.
You will always be my choice.
*Even when I am not yours anymore.
