tragically smitten
love, forbidden
feelings, kept
tight under wraps
because rejection
is something i can't face
you make me feel out of place
dazed, confused, in love with you
smitten, lost, broken in two
baby, you're deadly
baby, why don't you love me?
i gave you my heart so willingly
hoping you'd give me yours too
thought you did, at least thought
baby, you, i am blinded by
but my feelings for you
i'll never be able to deny
because i've loved you
for so many days and nights
that i can't help but write
and to express my undying love
just hoping you'll feel this too

maybe it's good that we have never met
so i don't have to face the fact
that you're not mine, you never were
my heart made me feel so absurd
you left me longing for you
as i did so, i fell on the ground
all messed up, in the dirt
all because i
wanted you
to love me too

no words can possibly express
how much i love you
someone which
i should hate
but i can't

the night is my dearest friend
it helps me breathe but then
4am draws closer in
and the buzz ends

the thrill of the night
it always seems to fade
as the morning dawns
makes my earlier bliss
made it feel like a charade

thoughts consume my brain
they affect my days
as well as my nights

can't get you out of my mind
i feel so ridiculous, so blind
you've got this hold on me
and i don't want to be set free
this love is worth the pain
hope there's something to gain
apart from a torn heart
scattered all over the place
trying to create a new start
hoping it's worth all this
