i will wake up
to a letter from you
would you like me more
if you saw me
are my looks distracting
too negative?
should i smile more
or does that make me a lunatic...
oh, i try
my public opinion
shouldn't be based
on what i fear
but my mind works faster
and my mouth just says
what i think people want to hear.
are your words going to be sweet
like a kiss on my cheek
or will they leave a sting?
we have a lot in common
but we don't know each other
will this lead to anything?
my battery is low
i think i better go
since we can never seem to meet.
i will call you again
when you need a friend
and i will still be there in a click.
my heart has slowed down
my expectations have dropped
i am known for getting excited.
but i should understand
that i'm just not that interesting
and i am not always going to get invited.
sorry for being so blunt
guess i'm feeling honest
so i thought i should rather just say
that my heart will be true
with how i act towards you
but you'll never understand me anyway.
