Look at me like how you look at the sun
as it kiss the ocean waves during sunset
but you said the rays hurt your eyes
and you hate how the sea makes your shoes wet.
Spend time with me like how you play
your games for hours and even with no snacks in between
but you said you have no topics to talk about
and you're happier when you win.
Smile at me like how you stare
at the camera while saying cheese,
cause the only moment that you smile at me
is when you're done while I'm on my knees.
People said I'm pretty
but others says I'm beautiful,
you said I'm just cute
and maybe that's acceptable.
I tried to look good
copied every make up and styles that you'd ever see,
cause even if I'm pretty...
I'm not pretty enough to keep your eyes on me.
