Nah I don’t really like you
I just like the attention
The feeling of being wanted
Like someone’s always there to listen

And I realize now the cause of many regrets
I didn’t say you could cross that line
I just said you could sleep in my bed
But boundaries get blurry when you don’t know how to say no
Cause it’s the fear of not feeling wanted
Which I can’t let go

And I think it makes me feel better
To look back at the past
With a mindset it was my fault
My own actions that led to this or that

Ithinking about it makes my blood boil up  
Not being in control of your own body
Being taken advantage of  
Dancing with the thought that you’re weaker than you think
Someone who can’t say no
Is not someone I want to be

So the past becomes grey
And maybe if I just tell myself
That I wanted it
It won’t feel like such hell

Cause when you tip toe of the edge
You’re bound to fall off
There is no yes or no  
On the cliff that we call touch
