everything i can't be

i know i can bring you what you need

its just that there are things that you can't see

things i want to throw away

and those words i repeat to myself almost every day.

i know that we could make this last

with out all the shit brung up from our past

but as you see me walking by

i can see that smile from the corner of my eye.

but these things and words i want to burn

hold on to me throughout all the turns.

and ill give u all of me one last time

as though you were always meant to be mine

and as i watch you lay your head down and cry

i cant stop thinking of you and i.

i painted this perfect picture

up in my mind

now all to do

is try to pass this time.

and i thought i knew everything

about me and you

but as the truth comes into play

there was never anything i really knew.

people living their lives

and acting so free

yet when they tell you they are better than you

all you can do is agree.

and when you call

it makes me wish for many more calls to follow

and when you kiss me

it makes my heart feel tired and hollow.

i wanted to be everything you need

and then these feelings went all too deeply

theres no way in this world

i could show you the effect you have over me.

and the letters you would write

bother me so much to this day

that when i read over all of them

they only whisper the sweet things you'd say.

id try and understand you

or at least the things you say

my lips already know too much

and my hands woudnt dare to tell.

to tell the secrets my soul keeps

and the feelings my heart shall weep.

so please dont touch me

the way that you do

it will make my core tremble

and leave me wanting more of you.
