    just don't get it
    im sorry you feel incompetent
    i hope i don't sound repetitive
    only in me do i have confidence
    but you look so good that it lures me
    and you sound so good that it hurts me
    i dont know if you remember everything
    but i do.
    i know you try to live without regret
    maybe you dont regret anything
    but i do.
    i've been waiting for an apology
    when i shouldve been apologizing for my actions
    for being blind when all i wanted
    was to watch you grow to be a woman
    the warm-up is over.
    the symphony has began.
    dear you,
    please tell me i'm wrong
    tell me i am irrational
    that i am still searching blindly for someone
    who is ready for love
    someone right in front of me
    when i didnt even realize the depth
    of your understanding
    tell me i have made a mistake
    that i should've argued
    that i should've fought
    tell me that i let go too easily
    and should've made a scene
    tell me that i am immature
    tell me anything but lies
    i am weak
    i am confused
    i am wrong
    tell me
    when was the last time i held you all through the night?
    never a worry would run through my heart like a knife
    it feels like a zillion years
    and i know you don't want to wait anymore
    to find you is to lose you
    what is that for?
    tell me.

    tell me i'm not ready.
    unorthodox
    ridiculous
    tell me everything i need to know
    teach me and in turn
    learn from me
    every secret that you want to know
    but not that you need to know
    i don't need you to trust me
    just trust yourself.

    it takes time
    to become content
    to be pleased
    while the fire burns inside
    fueling your aspirations

    i don't underestimate you
    i will laugh at you
    i will tease you
    but i believe in you
    i believe in dreams
    and mind over matter

    maturity
    with childish tendencies
    if your love is a game
    i don't want to play
    unless you are the captain
    and choose me first

    so tell me i'm wrong
    tell me i don't make you dream
    tell me i don't make you think
    tell me i am ugly
    tell me our conversation is NOT the best you have ever had
    and lastly
    tell me you miss me.

    regret.
    the past isn't living
    and neither is grieving
    if you haven't woken up
    keep on dreaming

    tell me you can't change the past.

    tell me you will change my future.

    Epic! The lenght in itself is impressive but you've got some great lines in there too. Nice!

    Peace and love :)
