You'll never know how cool I am, when I'm around you I just lose my cool. But if you decide you decide to hold my hand, I swear I'd be warm enough for you. As cold as hearts can sometimes be, it finds a flame, only after it's found your name. As cold as my once stumbling feet, always steadly stumbling, fumbling your way. Tip-toe, one. two. One. In front of. The other. tip. Toe. Tip. This dance often repeated when I feel I've lost my grip. Tip-toe, one. Two. One. In front of. The other. Tip. toe. tip. You watch me advance, cocked brow and lip. Crawling back to you. Always crawling back to you. Always never ever feeling right until I write to you. And every night I write to you; In my head, lying awake in bed; with keyboards or with lead; with songs birthed from dread-- singing "our love is dead." And You'll never know how cool I am, cause around you I just lose my cool. So I settle for a copy, for a hobby, for a tool. As cold as hearts can sometimes be, it would thaw at a possiblity of you and me. As cold as my once stumbling feet, still steadly stumbling, fumbling your way. Tip-toe, one. two. One. In front of. The other. Tip. Toe. Tip. I don't fear your rejection, in your eyes I've already quit. Tip toe, one. Two. One. In front of. The other. Tip. toe. tip. Inching as close as I can get, Hoping you still hear your name on my lips. knowing the first thing you might say is , "Ain't this some **** "You come and go as you please, you do?" "Assuming that I'll always be here for you." But you /were/ always there And I think that's hella cool. That'd you could be so warm, To such an uncool fool.
