I can't stop
and I know why...

I can hardly explain
The contrast between...

Being in love
for a long time is hard...

Knees tucked under my chin
Hands grasping my ankles...

I've taken my heart down off a shelf
and shared with you what I've kept to myself...

I once knew a boy named Nate,
Whom I was unfortunate enough to date...

I keep waking up confused
Wondering how I woke up in Hell...

This page of my life is wrinkled
Stained with drops of blood and tears...

I sit in a crowd
Glaring down at my shoes...

Every time I say I love you
My heart twinges...

Everything they do
Every word that is spoken...

Why do I feel like I'm stuck in my body
Waiting to grow...
