• You always had that way about you..
    You always knew just what to do.
    You always let me get away
    so I couldn't get through to you.

    But a heart is not a stone wall, my darling!
    A heart is not a gate
    that only opens when you want it to.
    You can dress all in black-
    the white will always shine through.

    And I gave you many chances,
    chances for a joker to change his ways,
    but a gamer is always a gamer
    and a blocker is always caged.

    Couldn't you feel that passion running off my lips?
    The longing of my fingertips,
    'till you made them curl and fray
    from the way you turned your back to me during the day.

    So I tried to sing your song..
    I tried to speak your language,
    but the words just came out wrong.

    Why live your life a fighter
    when you surrender to yourself?
    Maybe that's the only way for you.
    You always had it figured out..

    You always had that way about you..
    You always knew just what to do.
    You always let me get away
    so I couldn't get through to you.

    So run the miles in your head, honey!
    Run them till you get tired,
    and if you hit that road block along the way
    just remember you built it with your own barbed wire.

    The way you fine-tune and perfect your insecurities
    remains a mystery to me,
    and if you ever open your eyes
    just know that it's yourself you have yet to see.User Image
