False Alarms

False Alarms

Just one more shot of happiness please,

I'm thirsting for it, starting my pleads.

I'll continue to stumble around taking your hand,

a little more steps right toward the sand.

Don't get me near sober,

this alcohol feels like water.

I'm a failure to what I've believed,

seeing what I've got has been revealed.

Love.

What the hell is this foreign word?

It feels like a big splash of dirt.

It's torn me down, it made me burst.

I can't take it any longer,

I can't like you, it'll be stronger.

Help me up from being a monster,

don't even worry if you've lost her.

Please, it's a hand stuck from the start;

don't let go of it, I can't bear it to part.

I'm falling off in the pits of despair,

I never knew this feeling, I couldn't bare.

A friendzone, huh?

I thought it was another stupid word.

The boys in school laughed when it's heard.

Probably because they laugh at their misery.

I'll tell you the truth about it all,

it's no joke, it's a gigantic fall.

To think things would go alright,

this sadness not mended by pick-up lines.

I'm sorry, I tried to keep myself together,

composed myself, kept me under the weather.

I never thought I'd feel so strongly about it,

guess karma decided to hit me a bit.

Will I have hope?

Nope, you're losing yourself.

Fall even deeper in the pit you've dug for someone else.

I'm so sorry, I really tried.

Guess all the knots aren't tied tight.

Why are you two together?

Being with her isn't better.

She's a giant massive hypocrite,

loves you only when she turns off the switch.

She's tearing you down, can't you see it?

I can't bear to see you frown, and I mean it.

Oh dear love,

Why'd this happen to us?

Why did I feel like such dust,

as I sit on this swing that rusts.

I've loved you on and off,

I never spoke of it whatever the cost.

No, it's alright. I'm alright. Just be happy. That's all that matters to me.
