You know
I know you know
You know I'm lying through my teeth
But without my say
You aren't sure
Good
I'd rather you not be
Things won't get complicated
Too bad they already are
I got too close for my own good
And I want it back again
Turn back the clock
Shift time and space
Maybe things will turn out different
Though I know they won't
Just like I know you know
Complexity has never known to stary far
Not from either of us
So while it seems to be leaving you
For the first time in a long while
I will let its stay
Away from you
Enveloping me
For once one of us will be safe
If only for a short time
Then as time moves
Things will change
People will have come and gone
Complexity will shift and sway
Maybe one day leaving one
Or both of us for good
Don't ask who?
Don't ask why?
Don't worry
Because you already know
And I know you know
But without my say
You aren't sure
But you'll still worry
You'll ask
Who?
What?
And where?
And I'll keep the same routine
And you'll know I'm lying through my teeth
And I'll know you'll know
But do you like the answer
Think about it
Do you?
You already know
We both know that
It's in denial now
But you do
Do you like it?
Or does it terrify you?
Snow falls now
As a chill breeze passes my window
Are you thinking about it still?
Is that breeze carrying my thoughts to you?
Making you wonder
Ponder
Think things over
Are you second guessing?
Or feeling bad because you know its you?
Would you try it?
Or stay away in fear of losing what is now?
I was too close for too long
My hand was in the jar far too long
And was told to walk away
You know things aren't that easy
Just as I do
You know who "she" is
I know you know
And each time you ask
I'll be lying through my teeth
And Again you'll know
Just as each time you won't
There was a time once
But it had a set ending
Quite unlike the 'others'
Theirs were variable
Unknown
A mystery
Ending in
Good to bad
Semi-bad to ok
And the favorite
Don't-talk-to-me-hate-you-for-a-year-and-a-half-then-lets-be-friends-again
Or mine
Bad
Ok
And HOLYSHIT!
In no real order
They ended
But we never knew when
Hoping sometimes
They would last forever
Maybe it's what I'm searcing for
An unknown ending time
And maybe the chance to make a long run
To take it far and to who knows where
Maybe to get that feeling back again
That hope it could last forever
And that time may never come
And it may never start
And I will never say
Though I know you know
And you know I know
But right now
Your finally happy
And whether you know
Or i know
Thats all that will ever matter
