| day two. |
| 17march2002 Did you think I�d last this long? Whisper �I love you� and then be gone? Did you ever imagine someone would pursuit you so Refusing with every ounce of her heart to let you go? Did you know all of this from the start? Was this all a game to play on my heart? Did you ever really care either way? And do you care now Did you win the battle of apathy? And win the trophy of ineffectiveness Did I get the short end, or the long? Would I rather be who I am, or pretend I have control I have news for you---you don�t You pretend you do, and it�s all a joke Because some day you�ll be full of passion just like me And the captive will laugh and play you for a fool Knowing and unknowing, it comes full circle And you�ll want to die, and want to cry And you�ll understand why But not until then. Better to be true Than to be you. |
