I don't want to be misunderstood
But there's some things on my mind
I don't know if it's bad or good
But it's the love feeling kind

Let me finish what I need to say
I hope to God you won't stray
You can choose to stay or walk away
But remember that one day

You have touched the depths of my heart
A place to one has traveled before
Wait, before you start
I have a little more

You took away all of my pain
I smiled at yet another day
You helped keep me sane
You showed me the lit up way

You found love in me
But if you want to dart
I hope that you can see
This comes from the depths of my heart

The late night phone calls
The random sweet texts
Watch who falls
Into loves great depths

We smile like it's nothing
We speak as one
Together we have something
Who's going to run

Together we can walk
But all we do is talk

I know we feel the same way
If we keep this bottled up
One will surely stray

We can't ever let it end
But I can't keep you as just a friend

I can feel you near
I can see into your heart
Listen up my dear
We don't want to part

A story more beautiful than a dove
This story can't have an ending
This is love
So why are we pretending

They would tell you the tales
Of how they worked all day
Spitting out the details
With no time to play

They've felt so much anger
And way too much pain
the nights is not stranger
The night has felt much vain

They've worked with vitality
They've worked without pay
This is their normality
To work all through the day

They see the morning light
But work isn't quite done
They put up a fight
But still have fun

They may have a complaint
Of how I don't follow labor laws
They don't think I'm a saint
But if only they could speak

Every attempt has failed
I've bled so much
So many toxins I've inhaled
Still my heart it doesn't touch

My body is quite strong
What am I doing wrong

I need a quick fix
An easy way out
No more tricks

My time left isn't long
I'm singing my last song

This is a nightmare
Without a doubt
I can't stand this air

I'm living in fear
The devil lives near

I count to three
No matter what I can't die
These drugs won't **** me
But I still try

I can't help it
I am addicted
I'm brave to admit
This action can't be restricted

Find me in the dark
Leave behind the light
Watch how I mark

Watch the way I move
I don't need you to approve

Listen for that sound
Watch the blood flow
I'm lying on the ground

I'm not holding a gun
This isn't a war but
This action must be done
Just once more

I try oh so hard
All of us do
We have up a guard
We try to change your view

We aren't good enough

Do you even see us
Do you even care
What if we put up a fuss
Do you care what we wear

We are only human

You sit there and judge
Ten points off
For one single smudge
This life is tough

I just wanna be called pretty

I need to know
Is it still true
Do I still make you glow
Or are you through

You said I'm a dream girl
That no one could compare
You said I was a pearl
You said I was rare

Where have you gone
Why aren't you here
It's almost dawn

We made a promise
I didn't take it lightly
You were my Adonis
I was your Aphrodite

My heartbeat is starting to slow
I'm starting to not see
I just want to know
Are you thinking of me?
