"Frustrations swim
in the rivers of my kin
open like a broken dam
bursting open, pity the damned
because I don't know why
I feel this way

If I was frank I'd seem too selfish
or maybe that's my standard
but I could use more of her words
please say I love you
every now and then
because I can't get by without it...

Please ask me how I am
because I fear the worst of timings
I don't want to grow up numb
and repeat the mistake to fall out of loving...

If you're reading this
please tell me you love me
because I'm shattered

Shattered...

And if the timing isn't right
then I must apologize
but I hope if you might
please tell me I love you
without me having to say so

I need it at least for now..."
