this is why--

this is why i can't try with you
you lie
you cheat
you steal

you lie to me, you cheat on me and somewhere in the middle you stole my mind
because i seem to have lost it

words travel and yet we sit still
in the same predicament that words couldn't even describe

this is why i can't try with you

trying with you would mean giving up on myself
and that is unacceptable

unacceptable before the gods who believe in rebirth and sacrifice
unacceptable to the girlfriends who put the pieces back together
unacceptable to the little girls who believe that prince charming is the first man who smiles at them
leaving their shoe behind in hopes that another woman won't fill them


loving you is unacceptable and i can finally accept that
this is why
i can't try

he.makes.me.blush.

i got this love jones in my bones
for something kinda sweet
and it doesnt matter what he does
as long as he's only doing it to me
that's all.
