When all I needed, was the truth.

More than apathy, or empathy, maybe even sympathy

Like prefixes I'm standing, waiting for the clear

Everyone knows I'm in over my head

8:00 - you're on my mind

I try to disengage, myself from this whole reality

Say I agree with you, that it's all getting along

But I find another way to fall, and lose everything

as a sea becomes between us

I wish I knew I'd fallen in over my head

10:00 - you're on my mind

I attempt to close my eyes, but caffeine comfort

calls, and crying feels like a part of the past

becomes a part, maybe I won't act

She was yours all along; I won't come down

I love this torture, sweet remedy for happiness

Midnight - you're on my mind

and everyone knows she's on your mind

all the time, everyone knows I'm in over my head

Like a stranger I wish I could disengage

Myself from your reality, like a sympathy

that becomes a life that won't lead

All I wanted was to love, and be loved

But that was too much to ask for, from you

And I know why, and I feel ashamed to have even tried

Could have led you to believe I didn't

But that would have resulted in a lie, for my time

with you, I would have never saved your life

Fallen backwards, stuck in shock

I didn't know any better

After all, it was you who started this,

without consequence; I laid out a list

of why I can't do this, you trashed it

with your smiles and sweet caresses

Why I can't do this, why I can't do this

I couldn't hold back

and you left me to lie there, in the dark

as she begins to raise your heartbeat

back from the dead, drive until you lose the road

Wound me up, and threw me down

I'll admit to anything

Why I can live now, i'll never understand

I write for you everyday, and now I just pretend

that I never lost a friend, somewhere along in this

dizziness, wound me up, and lay me down

I'll take you for anything

Where were you,

when all I needed was the truth?

Lost along with time, all I needed was life

I'll write to you everyday, and now we can just pretend

that you never was a friend, and somewhere along in us

we wind up, and fall back down

Just take me, or take everything

When all I needed, was you.
