I think you look but fail to see
What's right in front of your eyes
The problems steadily harassing me
You don't seem to recognize
If it was up to you we'd live
Like this forever I suppose
Mistake after mistake I forgive
Staying through highs and lows
But you keep saying things will change
I'm a fool so I believe
Stupid how I find lies strange
After all this time why am I still naive?
Looking down on my lack of will
When I can't follow through on my word
Your promises you don't try to fufill
The hypocrisy is absurd
I wish I knew how you felt about me
Wish I could read your mind
When I ask you simply ignore my plea
So your feelings remain undefined
You say you love me just as much
As you did when this began
But something feels different in your touch
I honestly don't understand
My attraction for you increases every day
No
Every second that passes by
More and more you are pulling away
While I'm left here asking why
I work so hard to fix this mess
So both our wounds can heal
Going in circles
Make no progress
Like a hamster running a wheel
But I'll never give up hope
I'll remain devoted and strong
Even if we reach the end of our rope
I'll continue holding on
