I no longer try to impress I digress Hoping that what is left unspoken highlights significance You could be completely faithless I'd like to think there's some reason for my presence You're far more simple than me I foolishly try to win your appease Even though I know you wish I'd praise on my knees Your ego leaves you thinking you are godly To me you reek of voluminous folly I am left begging for acquiescence Communications fail and lessen to flattery and Superficiality I want you to love me Though I cant be sure on my own behalf I'd implore the same It doesn't feel like a game though I expect I am being played I wont falter to your narcissistic ways We fight until the passion leaves us in a haze It makes me feel alive when I oppose you and gain such a stance It beats watching the latest televised programs If it came down to you or I I'd surely die to save your life That has to mean something

I no longer try to impress I digress Hoping that what is left unspoken highlights significance You could be completely faithless I'd like to think there's some reason for my presence You're far more simple than me I foolishly try to win your appease Even though I know you wish I'd praise on my knees Your ego leaves you thinking you are godly To me you reek of voluminous folly I am left begging for acquiescence Communications fail and lessen to flattery and Superficiality I want you to love me Though I cant be sure on my own behalf I'd implore the same It doesn't feel like a game though I expect I am being played I wont falter to your narcissistic ways We fight until the passion leaves us in a haze It makes me feel alive when I oppose you and gain such a stance It beats watching the latest televised programs If it came down to you or I I'd surely die to save your life That has to mean something
