A simple being, a simple rule
Don't be the reason I burn the fuel
Utter no word, let me take a look
Let me have my fix and I'll let you off the hook
Stealing glances every once in a while, what a rookie
The sheer dedication that's willing to break free makes the soul a tough cookie
Counting the months, the days, the hours
A sweet snack, a meal that'll never go sour
It's laughable that you're such a susceptible little being
You know nothing about the individual I'm seeing
I see you never take note, that's on you
I guess your suspicions have no validity, it was never true
No image could ever compare to the things my eyes admire
Alive, walking, meeting the guidelines I require
From the front entrance, to the staircase, to the classroom doors
Every step's a confirmation, part of the daily chores
Looked up at the sun, we're all here watching something
You can't blame those who like to go day hunting
And the roads that lead you back to where you feel safe
Or maybe you don't? How do I know you're not acting brave?
Oh, how easy it is to find leads today
The best part about it is, each one is here to stay
For the sake of advancement and convenience
The internet had put you in a state of obedience
Gone is never forever, neither are you
Waiting for the midday room to open, I'm amused by the view
Take it upon yourself to stop it all from happening
The fact that it's impossible, it's addicting, it's maddening
The one you say you have isn't who's true to you
I'll be within arm's reach when it falls apart, as if on cue
May I hope you never unveil this story
Even though it was my peak, my glory
If you do, consider said sheer dedication
Maybe you'll find out a little more than your own reputation
I cannot lie, for my lips only utter what's honest
Anonymity and safety were the things nobody ever promised
You look down as I smile at your figure
How badly I need this moment to last as long as the picture
They don't have to know, do they, my love?
Look up at the sky, and stay right here, watch the elegant dove
Tell me it's not just me, you're not thinking straight
Let yourself commit, you'll have the truth, you won't have to wait
Since when did it get so hard to carry this out?
Whether I get what I want or not, you'll never get your mind out of doubt.
