I still want attention from you
I still want some of that praise
I still want you

Not this dry guarded version of you
But you completely
I want the you who was open with me
I want the you who did everything for me
I want the you who loved me

Why do I still love you?
Even after all this hurt
Even after all this pain
Even after all this confusion
Why even after the roller coaster we've been on, do I still love you?

We've been flipped and somersaulted
Stopped and dropped
We nearly didn't make it out
We could have been trapped
by the bars
hanging over our heads
Crushing our ribs
I was left with an open wound
and you closed yours.

Even after all this I still love you
Do you love me?
Do I still mean everything to you?
I want you to love me
I want to mean everything to you

What can I do to show that
you can love me again?
Do you want me to be your
damsel in distress?
Your secret?
Your property to defend?
I would do it all for you
A thousand times over

Why do I still love you?
When will I stop loving you?
