i've wanted to say this
ever since the day
your spirit met mine
but i always feared
that you'd play me
i thought it was just a feeling
that would fade into dust
but sunsets went by
nights went by
to and fro
to and fro
and so my heart went
i found myself
thinking about you
in the middle of the night
i became weak
because of numb feelings
you then caught me by surprise
when you looked into my eyes
and said three words
like the weakling i was
i nodded to your beat
you wanted a waltz
so i learned the steps
left, right, left, right
then two steps back
and so i stumbled on hormones
fell to the ground
will you pick me up
or are you letting me die
