Running through my veins
are the words I long to find
to express in perfect reality
how I feel inside.
There's nothing short of confusion
since the words are tangled in groups.
Love, betrayal, misunderstanding.
Lies of empty truths.
You said you were sorry
and I bought it once
if I've bought it every time.
but tall tales can only grow taller
and I can't take it in my mind.
I hold on to every word you say
but it's nothing but thin air
and when your best intentions turn out worse
it makes me doubt you even care.
So the only words I come up with
come through with anger and pain.
I'd like it if you would leave
but I'd rather if you stayed
and if you do want to stay
then I wish that you would just say it.
All the guessing is hurting me.
I can no longer take it.
There's repetition in your voice
because you use the same excuses again.
Are those echos I'm hearing
or old memories in my head?
So here are the perfect words
I searched and hoped to discover.
The perfect moral to ask of you
of what you left unanswered.
Life is but a dream
and my dream's end is close
so tell me now, don't hesitate.
Either you love me or you don't.
