this attraction is so strong,
i can't help but shake it.
yet you i haven't know you that long,
i can't take it.
the way that you make me feel special, for me to turn around and find out that i'm just like the last.
i thought we were leaving the past to the past.
but it's alright i won't fret.
but on my loyalty you can bet.
even when the proof is there.
i'll still find it in me to make excuses for you.
i'm hanging on by a thread, and that you know.
i'm still holding onto hopes that you won't do me like the rest.
just know this is only half the test.
i tell myself to shake it off or else i'll break my heart.
