Give Me a Dare

Give Me a Dare

***

All this time I've been listening to a single track!

This is getting tiring always rewind and turn it back!

I wished and wished for Christmas, Santa bring me something new!

I wished on a wishing star, oh please make my wish come true!

I believed in so many Gods I pleaded to them endlessly!

And after rain the sun comes out; oh rainbows please help me!!!

For I want to know everything that I can only hope to be

And I want to see everything, stop hiding it from me!

I wanna hear echoes and not only words,

I wanna feel something other than hurt!

***

But don't you see that I love you like I've never loved before!

That I pleaded and pleaded as you walked out the door!

And I begged you to stay but you left without a single word

And no matter how I try, even I can't change the fate of the world!!!

Oh, my life has been overturned and you're the reason why!

Can't you please accept my sorry, oh, look me in the eye!

'Cause I'm prepared to jump off mountains and to swim seven seas!

If it will make you come back to me I'll do whatever it takes!!!

'Cause oh, I hate myself to love you yet you don't seem to care!

I will ask you the truth while you can give me a dare!

***

I wish I was a cat so that I could have nine lives!

Or an octopus who's three hearts can't be defeated no matter how hard one tries!

I wanna be a cheetah so as to run away from pain

And I wanna be a giant 'cause his problems are tiny and so cause him no strain!

Or I wish I could be all of this, I'd be too powerful to defeat!

But since I'm only me I simply bow down at your feet!

But I want to know everything that I can only hope to be

And I want to see everything, stop hiding it from me!

I wanna hear echoes and not only words,

I wanna feel something other than hurt!

But don't you see that I love you like I've never loved before!

'Cause oh, I hate myself to love you yet you don't seem to care!

If I had a choice between my life now and death,

I'd most definitely choose the second one it's a much easier path...

When you're around, I hold it back, don't let you see that girl that always cries!

And all these things I say to you they're nothing whatsoever but lies!

And the only reason for that is because if I'd tell you the truth...

All that would come out of my mouth is a lame "I love you"...

Stop playing with my heart, giving me bruise after bruise!

No, I can't bear it any more I know that I'll lose!

That's why I wanna know what it is you want and what you expect!

Otherwise how am I supposed to know what I should respect?
