a verse too short
You
(a verse too short)
you may not be perfect
I will never mind
as long as you love me
now and for all time
I don't care where you came from
who or what you are
just as long as you're you
who loves me the best by far
we may have our fights
but I'll love you you just the same
everything won't matter
if you'll just call my name
don't look behind you
Don't Look Behind You
Afraid to look behind you
frightened you'll see someone or something
you're probably right
but you don't want to end up screaming
so you lie on your bed
you hear the door creak
the sound of the fan echoes
you hear your heartbeat
an occassional stir rans a chill down your spine
a sound from the next room
relax, you're fine
the faucet is on
you hear water drip
the tinkering of the flatware
a cloth being ripped
no, you don't turn back or look behind
you don't want to know
you don't want to be afraid than you are now
not really, never, oh no
I, a mistake
I, a mistake
Why am I still here?
A question only I can answer
Or maybe I can’t
I speak directly,
It’s a mistake
For what I say is unaccepted
And therefore wrong
I speak in riddles,
It’s a mistake
For no one likes the message
Though they may understand
I yell, a mistake
For hush, I am too loud
I talk, a mistake
For they cannot hear
I know for I have tried
Oh have I tried
Now I do not speak at all,
A mistake but I no longer live at all
Why am I still alive?
I can hear no one
For when I stopped speaking
Listening won’t matter
Vice versa
