Resolution

i don't like the notion of competing

for a love i thought was all my own

i refuse to take her sloppy seconds

to reap what her love has sown



i want someone who will not hurt me

the way your sideways glances do

there is no comfortable way to

pretend that I'm blind and cannot see



This is not the way to be adored

when I am not the only one

If I cant count on your commitment

I'd rather be alone!



I'd rather be alone...



I realise that there's no way to solve this

I'll never believe that she is off your mind

that unrelenting force that abounds is

one that can't be solved with only time



i wont cower in the shadows of feigned indifference

i am hurt and i am not afraid to say

i have never quite been able to make sense

of your decision to pretend to be okay



if it hurts then own it

if it's wrong discard it

if it cannot come to be

open your eyes to see

everything in this life

can be overcome

if we try...



but please don't insult me

by asking for time

because i know that I'll never be

the one you had in mind.
