I Want To Talk

I want to talk,

But I don't know what about.


I seem so young,

So It's easy to deceive.

Advice isn't needed,

Your engagement is greatly received.


I know who I am at the moment;

There will be some sort of reprieve.

I'm sorry for all my little white lies,

Just to keep you around me.

I hate to pretend I need advice from you,

But that's the only way for me to have a friendship too.


Maybe it's the gap,

Maybe you can't see past it.

Gotta stop before I snap.

All these lectures don't fully transmit.


I wish I'd be sincere.

Like someone you hold dear.

Although in my current state...

I guess you wouldn't hear.

I pretend to need your help

because I truly want your friendship.

After every encounter I say..."whelp".

You're the only one who's able to lend it.


It's all such a shame,

We have so many things in common,

I guess I'm to blame,

For thinking you'd give anything more than ramen.

I ask for advice because it makes others feel good.

Right after every encounter,

I don't really feel like I should.


I haven't met the right people,

Nor am I sure about the future.

I won't try to do anything illegal

I'm not the same person you were.


As you keep going on,

I bite my lip.

I know what I'm doing is wrong,

But there's no true way to skip.
