You tell me you can't find something you're not looking for,
and I reply sometimes things find us.
a terse response from your constricted mouth,
I say you don't speak with intention,
you tell me you don't intend to.
Will I come between you and him
or will he come between us.
you can't see with your eyes closed,
but you can't dream with your eyes open.
doubt becomes regret,
but I doubt you regret it.
you can't be empty
if you're so full of yourself,
you can't help me
if I don't need your help.
silence and hushed sentences
are better than yelling true feelings
my past is your future,
and your future hasn't passed,
but when it does I'll be waiting
for you to wait for me again.
I haven't outgrown you,
I haven't grown at all,
but you groan all the time.
you're just about to fall,
but still I fall for you.
You don't listen to me,
and neither does my heart.
you don't like to finish,
and I don't like to start.
and when we're together
you wish we were apart.
You'll get over this,
but this boy won't get over you.
you can't accept imperfection,
and I can't perfect acceptance.
but what does time matter
when it's already passed you by
and what do tears stand for
when you don't know why you cry.
your kiss is charity,
and what a charitable kiss.
you're the one I miss
but I'm the one you've misplaced.
You mistook me as your favorite,
but your my favorite mistake.
you're sick of loving me
but not loving you makes me sick.
you walk all over me,
and I walk beside you.
your eyes drive me crazy
but mine just drive you away.
I don't mind your make up,
but my mind is made up,
you can't make my mind up.
you say I'm too hung up
and that's why you hang up the phone
I wish you wouldn't leave
you wish I'd leave you alone.
I want to be more than friends
but friends is more than you want to be.
