Scars hard.

So here we are, I was trying to talk to you
but you always have someone else to see
i was there but you weren’t
and i know that you love me
but i’m not always sure.

And they had me, but i was still debating stalking you
you just have such a fun life to be
i was there but you weren’t
and i want you to love me
but i’m kind of stupid

i wish you wanted me
started to see that i was the one you could keep
is that weird i said that?
don’t counter me.
i’m trying, but doing worse every day.
and you said, “Alyssa it’s okay.”
but now i want to die.
could you stop me from crying?
no.

So here we are, i was crying in your arms
so that you could feel you do no harm
i wasn’t there but you were
and i know that you love me
but i’m not so self assured

and neither are you.
