Thinking of You.
I cant breathe any more,
The air im gasping for isnt there,
Confusion is rising up,
How can you do this to me,
Where did this all come from?
I cant understand how I didn’t keep you happy,
Didn’t I make you smile,
How couldn’t you feel the joy when our fingers touched,
I loved you this much,
Please keep space for me,
Cause you don’t want to be with me,
But then u do want me,
Can u understand what goes on in my head,
Trying to block out the voices,
The memories that haunt,
I know your not good for me,
But ive tried so hard to stop,
I just cant stop thinking of you,
How can you be so cold,
After everything we have been threw,
You said always and forever,
Well I guess that wasn’t true,
You wanted my name tattooed,
Well I guess u didn’t think about that one,
Now did you?
I hope you realize how much you mean to me,
Even after all of this crap you put me threw,
Your still the one I see,
When my eyes are closed and in my dreams,
Cause you don’t want to be with me,
But then u do want me,
Can u understand what goes on in my head,
Trying to block out the voices,
The memories that haunt,
I know your not good for me,
But ive tried so hard to stop,
I just cant stop thinking of you,
The sacrafices I gave,
The fights I fought,
The tears that fell down my face,
They wer all for you,
I gave you my heart,
It will always be with you,
Even when its in the pieces,
You made this afternoon,
I just cant stop thinking of you.
