The sleep over,
U come out of the shower
I'm here, u here
U ask me to oil ur back n all I say in my heads ah fuck
We talk, so you've got a crush
I listen attentively, I talk excitedly
But my dreams just crushed inside me

I fucking see how your face lights up
When you mention his name, the name which drives me insane!
But all I do is cover up my raw emotions
With bittersweet coatings.

Its time to sleep
Ur body's close to mine
I wish I could stop time
My heart skips a beat
Somebody please pass me a remote, so I can slowmo, pause and repeat.

Why does everything that's forbidden,
have the colour of a ripened mango
Begging to be eaten?
A conscious effort is made to avoid it
A subconscious effort is made to try it, promising to enjoy it..

People talk, words piercing like daggers, boring into my soul
Words tearing me apart till it reaches its destination, my heart
Creating a wound with alcohol poured and salt rubbed in it
All I can do is watch it, for I'm the redefinition of illicit,
abomination, sacrilege, you name it.

I'm scared, so scared, all I do is watch u and just hope
Hope for the forbidden.
Ur smile, your eyes, your personality lying all out in the open
Only thoughts in ur mind hidden and mine unspoken.
What u'd think is what I fear the most,
Cos that's the ghost which torments me, which haunts me..
What u'd think drives me into insanity.

Fuck, why is this so difficult?
Don't you get I'm tired? Can't you see I've tried?...

I move to the far end of the bed
Cos this new year
I won't be here
And its not fault of hers..
Gotta run, gotta flee from her..
But for how long will I run?
