it's amazing
saying it out loud
is so much different
than writing it down
and i've got this big
stupid fucking smile
plastered on my face
and it doesn't want
to go away

i tried so hard
to refrain from doing this
from feeling this way
i wanted to just wait
i wanted to wait for this
i wanted to make sure
that this wasn't just
a game to you
apparently
i failed

i wanted so bad
to test you
to make sure you
weren't simply
playing with me
i wanted to wait
i wanted to try
to pretend
that i didn't feel
this way already

i failed
