why do you keep doing this to yourself?
you're thinking of sending a message again
and then hoping for a warm reply
while knowing  you'll get a cold response

why do you continue to reach out?
this has happened over and over
you always end up cursing the night
and simply coasting past the day

why do you place her above you?
recall what plane stewardess always says
put on your mask first before others
shouldn't it apply for all cases

why are you so stubborn?
though she had not told you to stop
isn't it enough that she doesn't care
or that she barely responds

why do you keep insisting?
to send a message one more time
you've done this again and again
and the results never change

why don't you come back to reality and see?
that it's time to let this feelings go
stop making made up excuses
on the way she responds to you

why are you day dreaming of her smile?
her bright eyes and cute nose
and everything nice
please stop it for your sake!

why am i doing this?
i'm your logical head
pleading my case and asking you not to forget
the pain of one message sent
