You can read people like picture books
You can read me like that
I don't like it because I can't read you
Im not supposed to be able to
But i want to
But i cant
Because your guard is always up
I want to tear it down
But I don't think i can
Because you won't even let me try
I don't want to read you like a book
I just want to understand how you work
I have a fascination with finding
how and why everything works
I yearn to know the inner workings
Of people and things
So i just want to know you
Nothing more
Nothing less
I don't want to read
I want to learn
