OUR CRIME

Nails bitten down to the quick
I can't wait any longer
One more second and I'm going to be sick
I always thought I'd be stronger

My hand is shaking as I pick up the phone
But I know it is the right thing to do
I'm so afraid of being alone
But this situation isn't fair to you

The phone rings for far to long
But I'm not relieved when you answer
You're voice drives me crazy, I know it's wrong
This love is eating me up like a cancer

You say you're going to stop by
Before I get a chance to speak
After we hang up, I start to cry
Why am I so damn weak?

The doorbell rings two times
I brace myself and open the door
Your smile promises to erase all our crimes
But I know it can't, I'm sure.

But they do seem to slip away
If only for a moment
I know you can't, but I wish you could stay
When you leave, it's endless torment

The time goes by so quickly
Then you leave me here alone
So I wait, crying, dizzy, guilty...

For your best friend to come home.
