there's so much I don't understand
its a wonder I'm here at all...
pass by through petty masquerading    
      and petty smiles I don't deserve
emotions that flicker
but refuse to flame
sparkles that promise glory, but
as they turn ash
bring me to shame.
if you promise to keep a secret
I'd tell you I miss you-
and you'd say you miss me too,
wouldn't you?
if only you'd leave
so I could come find you
hug tight
and exclaim that I'd never let you go.
unless of course,
you wanted me to-
but you wouldn't
wouldn't you?
