[hometext] => You have to face it my dear I’ll always bring you tears I’ll always play upon your fears I’m always going to bring you down. (Longer work of mine. Enjoy n please comment)
[bodytext] => ----------___________------------- Here we go again. We’re right back where we began. Please don’t act surprised And don’t pretend that you can’t understand What all of this is about. You know that I’m always going to be me Wondering, curious, stupid little me Asking the questions that I can never keep at bay. I mean, is this love the best for me? Or does it hold me down? By clipping my wings Making me as useless And as pathetic as the caged eagle. Do I make you happy? Or is this love an illusion Another trick my mind has played on me? And what about all of the fun That I could have had? And the things I’ll never see? I have to wonder if happiness is eluding me Or if I am deluding myself Drinking deep from the liquor Of infatuation and selfish pride. Would I be happier with someone else? Could they make me feel special? Could they make me feel loved? Could we survive long nights alone? You know, maybe this is all out of convenience Perhaps love is just another shortcut through life And we’re just too lazy To pack our stuff and move away. Maybe, just too scared to try. Am I fooling myself? Pretending you were someone else. Wondering why you stay around When you know I get this way. You have to face it my dear I’ll always bring you tears I’ll always play upon your fears I’m always going to bring you down. I just wish I were as strong as you. Oh well, I guess that makes me envious too. Maybe I just don’t have a clue Of what love means anymore. I guess I’m just not the kind of guy Who was meant to settle down Or the kind that was meant to have a home Sleeping with the same woman night after night. Sometimes the only thing That makes me want to stay Is how you’re always there for me. Because whenever the questions disappear And I wipe away the tears I see you smiling back at me. You’ve never once gotten mad at me Nor the least bit bitter for what I’ve said. You’ve just calmly held my hand And told me that you understand. No matter what hell I’ve put you through You’re there for me Comforting me And that’s why I can’t push you away. Because every time I wipe my tears I want to see you there Smiling back at me. You know, perhaps I question Purely for the sake of questioning Or perhaps it’s my messed up human nature Making me always wonder what I’m missing. But as long as you stand by my side And calmly hold my hand I promise to pull through Because even in my darkest hour I cannot question how you feel. It’s all too obvious that you love me. Even though I’ll never know why. Until the day I die, I’ll never doubt What you feel for me And how you’re always there for me With your smiling face And your loving eyes Peeking through my tears As I wipe them from my face. You make me love you And even though sometimes I want to hate you for that All I can do is love you back. Because to find someone as special as you Is such a rare and beautiful thing That to pass it up now for any reason Or anyone Is an idea so ridiculous It is beyond all questioning.
