You were staring at me and your right eye was furious but there was a tear in your left one,

I should've said something but I didn't have breath in my lungs

To give to you,

 

Overdue on empty words

Explaining to you,

How simple love is

If I have you to love me

And vice versa,

 

The pain wouldn't be what you think it's set out to be.

Follow me, with both eyes,

 

I know one is still furious and the other is kind of blurry,

But if you can't see clearly just listen,

And if your thoughts are drowning out the sound of my voice 

Force your heart to pay attention.

 

I'm sure it's like physics, right?

There's got to be some equation that says it's gonna be alright,

There's got to be some technique to find reason within our fights,

I tried to do the calculations

The answer kept coming up as an "error"

So in my mind I removed the idea that you're mine

And recalculated as you being a piece of me.

 

Admitting that I fell for you was the least of my decency

Please believe,

I have scars and battle wounds too

But just because I have a past doesn't mean I can't fight for you.

 

Despite the truth that we're oh so scared to face

That you can love some one but not trust in them

Because time is all it takes,

To shift things out of place,

 

Conflict in the foundation

And too much severity in my mistakes

 

Now there's too much at stake

To walk away or take a break

The Leo of 1993 won't even look me in my face.

 

I'm scared that if I hold you I'll feel your love start to disintegrate 

But I guess if it ain't real love then by default it's gonna be replaced.

 

So now looking in your eyes,

Wondering,

If I should let those three words spill from my mouth,

 

I don't.
