You know I like you
I know you do.
So I was just wondering,
If maybe you liked me too?
...

First I'll feel the butterflies inside
Even after all those times I cried.
Next the nervousness will erupt,
Trying to act normal, how long can I keep it up?
...

I do not want to hide anymore
Those feelings inside
But the pain behind it
Just keeps making me cry
...

I would much rather lay dead in a box
In the ground, below surface
Or washed away to sea
Projected upwards into the open space
...

911,911, please listen to my emergency
My heart, my heart, I can’t stop it from leaving me
It goes, goes straight into his hands, oh his hands
Oh boy he knows, oh no he knows, he knows
...

I have poured my heart out into words,
I have tried to share, but not sure if anyone has heard.
One gets to the point where they can’t take anymore,
The breakdown begins, and they are left crying on the floor.
...

Only until this cigarette is near its end,
A brief moment towards the end of it all,
Recalling the pain, just allow me to mend,
Onto the floor the grey ashes gently fall.
...

I wish I could take all your troubles away
I'd bear your burden, steer clear of the gray
Our hearts fell at different rates, they've gone and unhooked
Now it seems far too late for a second look
...

Do you remember when our eyes first met in sincere emptiness and no regret?
Do you recall the first smile that we shared and how both our hearts were unprepared?
It seems that my dreams and schemes for us have all vanished with the gusts of dust,
but I still remember it all and all that we had shared.
