"You like me? Since when?"
Confusion and mistrust rush across my face, I don't believe a word
"Since forever", you said not a little bit bothered
Oh I know this, it's that game
When you and your stupid friends
Break a sweet girl's heart with absolute no shame
"No you don't, it's just a phase" I said
Hoping you'd back down and put it all to rest
But you don't of course
You're not one to back out
Never to lose control
"But it's true" you follow me
As I run from what I don't know
My fears, my past, it's the only way I'd show
Forever in hiding, not wanting to believe I am worth it, though
"Believe me, I won't lie"
Our steps get bigger, and I suddenly stopped
"WHY?'
"What?", now you're the one confused
"Why do you like me?" I asked
Knowing you won't know and just leave it instead
"Because you're you" you said
But that wasn't enough
Even when my heart skipped a beat, my eyes burned with your love
It wasn't even close
Because i won't believe
Not through all of my flaws
"You're wrong, move on" I said
Trying, hoping to be as brutal as it goes
Me and you aren't two sides of a coin
Your passion is fire, I am the fire itself
You will not get near me
Not if you want no hurt
So, I walk away
Feeling the heat of your gave
Even when you're not in my way
"Because you make me me"
I froze
Second guessing myself, if I'd heard that wrong
But no
I saw it in your eyes
that spark that always has a way to melt all kinds of hearts
"I make you you?" I asked
"You make me me" you said
And that was all kinds of enough.
