Sometimes with my lips, I know I can't speak.
Sometimes in my heart, I know it can't beat.
The pain, it always starts when I know our love's bleak
I've been livin' everyday without nothing to seek
And I know, deep inside, that you'll always stay true
But how can I find myself without even holding you?

They say love's just a game but how can you compensate
the fact that you can't tear us apart from our fate
This distance, I know, is a major sacrifice
But the way that I act; I can't even suffice
the needs that you want, I've been going out of my way
to prove me right, even though I know your bearing the weight.

I've been failing again
Dropping from Bs to the Cs
To the Ds to the Fs
Been falling down on my knees
And the nerve, of having to just call you my "boo"
I guess all I'm trying to say is that I'm missing you.

Telling you
the words I really do want to say

Where were all the sunny days that shone through our depression?
That was keepin' our progression and compacting all aggression?
But you watched me as I grew,
and you withheld all discretion
as I changed and adjusted with a simple little question
of why in the world would I waste my life waiting
Should be easy enough -- to keep your porcelain heart from beating
And all I have to do is just kiss another guy, or create a little lie, or exaggerate my cries

But no
I refuse
to make life difficult for you, I would even let you go
with a risk of breaking too
I wish that you knew all these feelings that I had
All these feelings that are sad
Written in a notepad

Quite honestly, I always feel like shit without you
But I hold up and stay clear Like a painful tattoo
"You you you," a broken record just for you
Can't you tell from my voice I'm pouring out for you?

That I /want/ to keep waiting even if my voice is shaking
I know in the end, there's no reason to be hating
A part of her is missing, and nobody is listening
A part of her is dying, but nobody will listen
She's screaming out, yelling 'till her voice gets sore
She doesn't want to be alone, shut outside the door
and she's doing all of this
for the sake of coming back
for that glimmer of hope
there's no reason to attack

We will never be the same
Can't you see that times have changed?
Even if you make mistakes
hey at least, you ain't fake
don't want no paper gangsta
Don't want a pretty actor
to play me a role just to give
a fucking answer

Let's all rewind back to the days
When staring in your eyes always left me in a daze
When stars glimmered brighter than the surface of the ocean
And winter was warmer even if there was no motion
cherry trees were blooming, turning into blossoms
As I flipped back and forth, scanning through my albums
Constantly reminded of the past that we had

It just doesn't make sense, all these scenes don't add
up to the present or the future that we coulda had.
You know.. You were my comrade.
I love you, baby. You know I can take the pain.
There has got to be something I will earn or gain.

We've been missing the whole terms of love and interaction.
Do this with me?
We need to take action.
We need to do this in a more simplistic fashion
With love and respect, and a little more passion

Been failing again
Dropping from Bs to the Cs
To the Ds to the Fs
Been falling down on my knees
And the nerve, of having to just call you my "boo"
I guess all I'm trying to say is that I'm missing you.

You're my flower, you're my river.
Give me one more chance, to prove that you're still sure.
Listen closely, these words of good advice
Don't ever let me, never once and never twice
