Pathetic but true, I've tried to teach you, the layers my mind can convey.
The naive that you choose, for you'll surely lose, the lies will catch up any day.

You study my face, knowing he's in your place, though persistent you stand your ground.
I'll hide like a coward, my fears they have towered, I'm only with you because he's not around.

Yet still I need your affection, a soul without any direction, don't pity my empty plea.
You're surely enough, yet my conviction is rough, and I only love you because you love me.
