Take off the skin you shed
Release her from your bed
Your blue eyes
Misty and blind
Sensitive, with your instincts
All arranged
Don’t come for me tonight

Your heart will swallow me whole
Suffer me and close in
Enclose it all
And you want it that way
I can’t scream
Can’t get away
I’m paralyzed
Hypnotized by the fear
Of seeing you
Here tonight
I’m so alone tonight
Of seeing you here tonight
With her.

The more I
see You
The harder it
is
The longer
I’m away
The more
I hate
But the
second
I
see
you,
I recognize you from down the street,
i forget my anger i can’t stop smiling my frustration turns to
hurt
i don’t know what to do
but
The more I see you
The harder it
is.
so.
the longer I’m away
i can just keep hating you.

Telling my friends
I don’t know what you mean
You’re leading me on
How can I be wrong
They agree still but I can't
Block you out
I need you in my life
You’re a part of me now but
The more
i
see
You
The harder it is.
The longer I’m away
I get to keep hating you

But i don’t want it to
Be like this.

I may not be head over heels
but see
To put it simply
I like it better this way.
Cause now my vision
Isn’t clouded.
It’s as clear as the day

What attracted me to you
I don’t know if it’s real
Or how I can tell
But I like you enough
To give up some of my love

You can play with it—its putty in your hands
I want to see what you can do with it
Will do with it.

I’d rather feel and fall
Than never fall at all
I care.  I want to know

What it’s like
So when it happens again
I’ll know what to plan
I shouldn’t avoid the pain
Cause then where’s the gain?
I’ll be smart
But I wont be afraid
To risk feeling it all.
