I couldn't comprehend the words you spoke
Because my mind was distracting me with words of hope
And I used to believe it'd be okay
But to this day
who knows
Because I've taught myself to be just fine
To travel all paths, not the straight line
I've been told what I'm expected to do
But lately I wonder if that's the difference between me and you
Because you follow what they say
you listen then do and respond "okay"
Yet I put up a fight and make my own rules
Hoping the road will build itself with no tools
And I may be lost for now,
But I think I'm finding myself
And to you that may mean something else
Which is what I hope

I saw you today
I see you everyday, although this time you saw me too
And I think your eyes and mine both knew
The feelings were there, and I think they'll always will be
Only, I'm not sure we'll be around to see
The day either of us says another thing about it
Because we've tried too many times,
To force something we've always believed was there
something we've always believed to have shared
We've tried so many times
That we gave up, because why keep going when you have no luck
And I believe some day I could have fallen in love with you
That's not me being dramatic
I would have fallen in love with you
Because the words you spoke were innocent and the truth
Your eyes were every color, mixed into one shade of blue
And those blue eyes showed me everything I know
They taught me just how to let go

I fell for someone who didn't fall back
And I didn't know how to react
Until I thought of you, and how I managed to get through
And I may still be hurting, yet I think I'm done with the cursing
Because I'm no longer mad about the days you couldn't come
Or the nights you could, when we would only talk some
I'm no longer mad at the fact that when I said goodbye, you let go
I'm not mad at you for respecting my answer, I just hope that now you know
