I have often found irony in it When such silly people come to me And ask me of love They seek for the knowledge that I have not earned Nor gotten through experience And yet I can still provide They call me a master of that trade A trade that I have never traveled on And that I never thought I would travel on
I have often found the irony of it When I have all of the light in the world Yet the moment I long to read it is gone That as soon as I need something It fleas and runs and hides from me
I have often found the irony of it That when I am in the presence of someone and name on there lips is never retired And when they cannot bear to be away from them And they know every And every And every Little thing of them They cannot tell this person how they feel They cannot express to this name All of the things that they wish to become They cannot even speak to them
I have often found the irony of it But now does it hit me with force Where I used to be so knowledgeable All of the information has left me When I thought I could relay of just that It is gone in my time of need And now I can understand the people I once called Silly and Ironic
For I am in love
Utterly and hopelessly in love And I am utterly and hopelessly lost And everything I once knew Has disappeared
I cannot even fathom the thought of them So much as go up and talk Yet everyday I yearn For some way to explain to them For some way to make them understand That every time they smile I can feel my heart throbbing
But there is no way for me to explain All of my excellence has faded All of my brilliance has left I am stuck with a heart throbbing And a soul hurting
All I have is a face of irony And a mind that has betrayed itself
