you’ve got a glint in your eyes that makes it burn to meet them
i’ve been thinking it over and i’m not sure why
but in all of my thinking i think that might i have crossed a line      [?????]
and now i’m not quite sure that i can choose peace this time

i know i

hate that i’m being dishonest
hate that i got this far
hate that i’m stumbling such that
we can’t even talk without me raising my guard
it’s something that should’ve been easy
for a brief time you were my calm
but my mind has been taking me places
where you can see through to my beating heart      [this sounds dumb, retrack convincingly or make peace with it]

so i’m perched up
i’m up top
hoping you’d come and knock me down
so i can pick myself up
and say i’ll 
do a little better next time around
but i know that you’ve got
other
business to attend to
that’ll be just fine
the pleasure’s been all mine, really  

[break]

there you go bursting my cool, an invocation of my disarray
i can see the problem, i can see through you, but i know that you see through me too
you’ve got me scrambling bad, even by my standards, oooh
i’ll be your greatest problem to solve, i’ll be your latest source of scandal 

you know i

hate that i’m being deceitful
you know i have an honest heart
hate that i’m wasting my time
writing round you instead of saying take me apart
it’s nothing but melodramatics
think i’m through the hardest part
uncertainty getting the best of me
giving on up before we even start

so i’m perched up
i’m up top
hoping you’d come and knock me down
so i can pick myself up
and say i’ll 
do a little better next time around
but i know that you’ve got
other
business to attend to
that’ll be just fine
the pleasure’s been all mine, really
