I revel in our fights
Its the only time
I can pretend
Like you actually care
About me

Everyone looks better
Dressed up in black and white
Untouched by the colors
Of the lie they hide behind
You notice every inch of them
From the hue of their hair
To the color of their skin
You can truly see the way
Their eyes reflect the sun
And how they hold themselves up
Everyone looks better
Dressed up in black and white
Untouched by the colors
Of the lie they hide behind.

I don't want your money darling
I just want your attention

You couldn't be cliche to save your life
Your simply too stubborn for that
You see love as a pastime
Not something to seek out
Even when you're with me
I'm not really there
I can tell
You'll never kiss me in the rain
For fear of getting wet
You'll never talk to me about your day
Or ask me how I am
You could never write me love notes
Or give me a sweet nickname
Or even sing along
Because you'd hate for me to hear your voice
Because all of that
must seem so silly to you.

I'd love to write your name here
So you would know
That all these love poems
Are for you

I'd love to write your name here
So maybe you would understand
Just how lonely
You make me feel

Being with you is like floating on air
Wonderful, with you, the clouds beside me
But I am not a part of you
I am simply there

I don't want to be some trophy girlfriend
Sitting, looking pretty
I want you to want me, need me, love me
The same way I do you

*Because you are my everything
But I feel like nothing to you

Give me rough ***
Give me hard times
Give me all the pain you can
Because I love to absorb it
Just like a sponge to water.

The rain is running down
My window pane
Like the tears that
Are falling down your cheeks
It's painfully beautiful.
