Title: For you, from me

I can smell it on your skin
I can taste it in your mouth
you've been thinking again
you won't tell me what about

I'm trying to trust you
but you're making it hard
you keep hiding things from me
you're keeping me in the dark

I wish you'd just tell me what you want
whether it's me or someone else
I wish you'd just talk to me about everything
open up to me

I know you find it difficult
and I know I make it hard
but my darling, you should try
I love you, deeply, I

Chorus: can't remember, the last time you told me how you felt
I can't recall the feeling of excitement as it's my name your lips call
and I'll always be in love with you, the way you hold yourself
but I wish that you would understand
that it's you who's hurting myself

I never wanted to distrust you
and I hope I have no reason to
but there's something that doesn't sit right with me
and it's past the paranoia and black noise

I want you to know you're the light of my life
and that everything sucks without you
I want you to feel my hearts happiness when I'm by your side
I'll happily waste my days with you
I'll happily waste away with you
as long as I am by your side
I can't think of a better day to suffer

Chorus


It's so cliche, but I don't know what I'd do without you
except I really mean it, I don't know what I'd do
I'm hung up on you, I'll be yours until you abandon me
you make my days a bit brighter
and you help me feel pretty again
even though I'll never agree

Chorus

End: you've made me feel better
you've recovered all that I assumed was lost
you've mended my broken thoughts
and I'll try to trust you, sweetheart
and I'll love you with everything I have, I hope you don't mind

Title: Attempt

Wrapped up, in each of your lies
the way you just casually tell them to me
and you say I'm meant to trust you?

you give me the sweet talk
with words like honey
drizzled in softly spoken heart ache
and I can't help but wonder if it's really you that's saying it
because I've heard it too many times from too many lovers lips

I know that I've got a lot I need to learn
I know that it's me that needs to change
but you must admit, my dearest love
that you don't really help me at all
I'm always unsure and doubtful of the way you feel
of the way you keep everything a secret
of the way you never tell me what's going on


Chorus: I'm ever so ambitious
to think that you really do care
I'm ever so suspicious
I create situations in my mind that I know will occur
and I can't believe that you are still here
how long will it take before you leave?
I'm ever so delirious
to think that it's me you want
to think that it's me you love


I'm attempting to better myself
and I hope you appreciate me for doing so
and I'm improving every flaw that is sewn together with hopeful thoughts
I hope you never hurt me like the first
I hope you never let me down
I don't think you realise how much I lost and sacrificed for the last man



the way you talk when we're together
but the words you say when we're apart
they're intertwined with confusion
and it makes me question each thing that's left your lips
I don't think you realise how much you mess me around


Chorus


I want to try and make it better
but I don't think you'll love me much longer
I want to try and be less bitter
but I don't think you'll stick around


Chorus


End: I'll try my upmost best
to always be in your good books
because then maybe you'll see a future with less grey clouds
and maybe I'll trust the way you speak and trust the love you took
