why would you play a game with no instructions
why would you love a girl made of porcelain
why is it easy for me to take off my clothes
for a boy who never cared
but so hard to tear down my walls
for a boy who might
why is it so hard for me to say that i love the way you tap your feet
but so easy for me to say how scared I am that you might hurt me
why do i keep seeing shadows on the wall
shadows of a young girl running across the grass;
not because she's happy
but because she's being chased
why do benevolence and malevolence sound so different when i'm all alone
but sound the same when i'm being held in someones arms
john keats wrote something about joy and pain being equally blinding
why can i relate to those words
more than i can relate to other people

will someone please tell me
