Your sweet and sour disposition lights my wide eyes seemingly I've sunken deeper into your glory The hills you paved were treacherous I blinked in rhythm and counted corners Nervously, I talked to much Your eyes would prompt me to retire But I would never let you win I know sometimes my Achilles Heel is out to get me The rumor is it could be you I'd laugh to try to disconnect from all the things I hate to love You'd try and look into my pupils and gaze into that great abyss The dilation keeps you hooked but I could still never let you completly in I tried to kiss you to surrender, but that's not what you've come here for And I convincingly stare right through you and of those subtlties you wear All that intimacy is not what I'd prayed for I've come for something much more complexΒ So what I need to do is stop deflecting, keep it real and hold you close I wish that I could start connecting that broken little girl whom speaks in vain Fairytales are not an option But for some odd reason I'm starting to change my mind The way I think is still distorted And for you it might be a silly game Because all these bruises keep me guarded And all my problems shelter all my shame And thus my soul is not yet at rest And my heart still runs a muck But if you have the patience for it It might be better than you imagined
