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

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

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

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

Lonely Echo
Casey Johnson...

Tears stream down my face
Burning my skin as they roll...

I can hardly explain
The contrast between...

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

It can't be good
For what's left of my sanity...

Should I try again?
Or just keep my mouth shut...

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

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