Thoughts to words as God to book
Meanings fiercely ripped and took
No way to know 'complete and real'
Unless you’ve felt what I feel

All for love, come what may
Defeating ev’ry disarray,
Fortitude in prime display
That is love, as people say

Yet bearing no such passion
I pretend in awful fashion
All the words I speak as true
Are to convince myself, not you

In endless fraud I try to show it
Behind the act I do not know it
If love is fuel for hearts aflame
Where is my burning pain?

As reason to science flows
So logic from emotion goes
Philosophers at their best
Could not define this human mess

I did not want to believe
That this play was writ by me
Manipulation by mistake
I’m a fool, your heart might break

These subtle regrets slip by
Reminding me of my lie
How I want to run from this
Reverse it all is my wish

Just two weeks had we spoken
When the ice was barely broken
If we’d not made that mistake
Maybe we could be soul mates

But ask too soon and move to fast
And lose it all, regret the past
There’s this feeling in my chest
I never should have answered “yes"
