if I had known

If I'd have known all this
I'd have kept silent
Never said what I felt
Kept on keeping it to myself.

I'm good at that anyway
But I decided to finally say
What's been sitting inside
Finally got tired of hiding.

You're making it hard
Throwing curveballs
Can't tell if you're being careful
Or doing it on purpose
Every time I look
You're there with another rule.

She has to meet you
Or it just won't do
I know you want to see
Who I've been talking to
She isn't ready
Needs more time
Afraid she will get hurt
I'll let that happen to me
Before it happens to her
I'm used to it
Why spread the pain?

You say this isn't on you
But yet it is
If I don't find someone who
Wants what you do
I'll have to keep looking
Even if the person really isn't for me.

You already don't like this girl
But I do
That's not enough for you
If you cared
You would let me stop there
But you don't.
It has to be your way
Even though you won't admit
This is you running the show
If I had known
I would gone on as normal.
