Don't Take This to Heart
It's not like you to be this way,
And I don't get what you're trying to convey.
But it's something I'm not that familiar with.
It's not like in one touch
I'll somehow come undone,
Into the feeling that's probably not right.
I'm still surprised that you deal with me,
But I seem to bring you so much glee.
Do you even know you're that way in my eyes?
God...what am I thinking?
All of you actions are confusing me.
Encouraging words that you say
Seems like flattery in a sense.
But I should know better
Than to think this way, oh,
Why is it so hard to convey,
That this plays no big part,
That my heart knows nothing at all.
If I ever say this,
Don't try to take it, oh no.
Can you please tell me how I affect you?
Oh god,
No, don't think in that way.
I'm trying to find the right words to say.
Though please forget what I asked.
You shouldn't care anyway.
This is not fun to play
While you look at me
With those curious eyes.
Thinking back to the days of old,
When we were both feeling bold,
In a sense that nothing could stop us.
We didn't need to touch
To help us understand
That we wouldn't find anyone to replace us.
But then the thoughts seem to come my way.
Oh, what good is having emotions come into the fray?
Like hell you'd even think the same as I,
Don't listen to what I said.
So I'll go at it maybe one more time.
Throw the grenade and try to hide
Away from what damage I could make.
Why be so troublesome
Every time I fall for you?
The fact I can't translate you words
Doesn't make me feel understanding.
So try to not take a glance
Into how you put this heart in a trance,
And inside my mind.
It's not like it's bothering you.
But I feel you give me mixed signals.
I doubt you're suspecting anything.
Anything my thoughts could create.
Can I take a step back
To release what I feel?
Cause this heart can't tell
What it is to you.
All of your actions are confusing me
Say all of those encouraging words to me.
Is it even flattery?
And I know I should know better
Than for me to show you the way I feel, oh
But why do I find it so hard for me to convey?
This shouldn't play a big part,
Though I don't blame you.
Please don't listen to what I said.
Thoughtless words don't count.
And I never meant to make
My situation seem so
Hard to break.
You don't get that I
Have to stop my way
Of thinking so I won't cry.
Let's try to not take this to heart.
