Songs I Write | VII

Friction

You drag me up the walls then I have to tumble down
You're taking the piss when you promise that you're around
Since you run away from conflict and all you do is complain
And no one else will want me like this so I stay

And I'm wishing you would come rushing to lessen the tension, I'm so tired
Arguments, conflictive, congruent is what we could've been, I think as I take in the time
Watch you taking your time
And taking all of mine
Stop taking this time this time

All you do is let me down and fight and fight and fight
Just so you can feel and you believe one of these times you'll be right
I wish you knew you were human but you persist with the fiction
And between us remains only friction

I gifted you my innocence
Alongside sinfulness
I gifted you my first kiss
Really, you had stolen it
I gave you my youth
Forgave your abuse
You were so rough with your ruse
But I was taught it was love to lose

And I'm wishing you would come rushing to lessen the tension, I'm so tired
Arguments, conflictive, congruent is what we could've been, I think as I take in the time
Watch you taking your time
And taking all of mine
Stop taking this time this time
