Words confuse me What’s more correct; Presume or assume I like to think that I’m clever Or Witty But I find myself looking at dictionaries or thesauruses More often than I like to admit What words are interchangeable? Trust and betrayal are interlocked in my mind When I look at you, I wonder what I’d find If I looked up Love in the dictionary Surely you can’t be the closest I’ll get To a father figure Love and Hate Pain and Joy I find I can't tell the difference Am I witty? Am I clever? Tell me, what’s more fitting; Uncle or Monster? Words confuse me, But you terrify me.

The Dictionary
Words confuse me What’s more correct; Presume or assume I like to think that I’m clever Or Witty But I find myself looking at dictionaries or thesauruses More often than I like to admit What words are interchangeable? Trust and betrayal are interlocked in my mind When I look at you, I wonder what I’d find If I looked up Love in the dictionary Surely you can’t be the closest I’ll get To a father figure Love and Hate Pain and Joy I find I can't tell the difference Am I witty? Am I clever? Tell me, what’s more fitting; Uncle or Monster? Words confuse me, But you terrify me.
