Why don't you speak?
Why don't you love me back?
Why don't you reach
out? is it your lack
of confidence in life
or could it just be me
I can see the pain and strife
in your eyes, you want to flee
from the pain and sorrow I hold
You words hit me like a knife
but I'll stand tall and bold
I don't know if I love you
but I think I truly hate you
what is it you do
to me to make me feel this way?
I can't stand anymore
and there's something you won't say
why are we constantly at war?
One day we're the best of friends
the next I'm crying cause of you
is it true we'll all come to some bad ends?
I suppose you are mine if this is true…
unanswered questions
make me stop and think
dealing with reflections
I know I'm gonna sink
down into your abyss
you'll throw me down there
with all of the rest
of those who you've led there…
