So many things I wish I could say
Thoughts build up more day by day.
I wish I could pour my emotions out to you,
But I just don't know what you would do.
Would you sneer, laugh and run the other way?
Would you make fun of the things I'd say?
Would you embrace me and never let go?
Would you love me, and let the whole world know?
Would you cry tears of joy because you were waiting on me?
Would we become a couple like I wish we would be?
Would you run and hide?
Would you stay by my side?
The thoughts antagonize me until I crumble,
Even normal sentences, I fumble.
How can I hide all the things I'm feeling inside?
If you can't see it, you must be blind.
I'd give up everything just to touch your face,
To secure myself in your gaze.
If I broke down and told you I loved you
Would you break down and tell me you love me too?
Would you cradle me in your arms?
Would you give off all your boyish charms?
Or would you reject me?
Break all my hopes of things we could be?
Do I take a leap of faith?
Or in my self-loathing do I bathe?
You've seen my good side, you've seen my bad;
And being without you would make me sad...
But my mouth stays sealed no matter what I do,
Even though I just can't live without you.
