i don't want to want you
because wanting you
only results in misery
but your smiles and compliments are all i can seewanting you means waiting
waiting on a text
a smile
a compliment
a confessiona confession i know won't come
because all you do is close your eyes whenever i show my feelings
driving me to the brink of insanity
my lips part but words don't spill from themwanting you means having my heart squeezed to death
i survive on the crumbs you feed me
those slivers of hope keep me naive
but make me sleep better at nightall i see sometimes is the other girl calling you
wanting your attention the way i do
missed calls and unanswered texts
i wonder if that's waiting on me once i do decide to say somethingwill your laughter haunt me?
will my phone miss your calls?
will the pain ever stop?
fuck, where are you?
