I like you
And I hope the feeling is mutual
But I'm asking for the impossible
Because while I spend my time
Thinking about you
You spend your time
Wanting her
And I know I can never match up to that
Because I can only make you laugh
But she can make you happy
And I only say encouraging words
While she can give you inspiration
Compared to her
I am nothing,
I can never be her
And that's a fact

I will always think
That it's my fault
No matter what the situation is
You can hurt me
And I'll ask for forgiveness
For inflicting the reason
Why you've done it
I will always blame myself
For stupid reasons
It won't matter if it was your fault
Because in my mind
It was always mine
I'm the problem
A waste of space
You can stab me
And I will simply say
Sorry for ruining
Your shirt with my blood
And for causing inconvenience

He was just a guy                                                              ­                                                              I'm­ just a guy
Who simply caught my eye                                                              ­        Who is lucky enough to know her
With that daring smile of his                                                              ­                         The sound of her laugh
Can leave the whole world breathless                                                       ­                    Leaves me breathless
His sense of humour is weird                                                            ­                     She enjoys peculiar things
But I like it that way                                                              ­                                  And I like her just as she is
He's comfortable with silence                                                          ­               The way she talks about books
Because he knows and understands                                                      ­               Like it's the love of her life
That I get lost in my thoughts sometimes                                                        ­                  Makes me wonder
Or get too occupied with a book                                                           If she'll ever talk about me like that
But I'm just me                                                               ­                                                          But I'm just a guy
And I don't think that's good enough                                                      And I don't particularly stand out
Because I don't deserve a guy like him                                            I'm not one of her favourite characters
I'm not funny, or smart, or beautiful                                                        ­Nor a celebrity from her tv shows
And certainly not interesting                                          Because I know that I don't deserve a girl like her
But I'm happy just being with him                                         Who can brighten my day with her presence
Because he's simply lovely in every way there is                      And she's simply beautiful in every way
I tried writing in 2 perspectives, but I don't think i did it well so i'm sorry.

My love for you is hopeless,
Yet I still do
It is a battle I already lost
But still fighting for it,
Because to love you is to die
And to die is my end
My feelings are worthless to you
Because in your eyes, it's simply a game
But it's definitely not a game I'm willing to play

I told you I'm sad
Thinking you'd understand
But instead you said
get over it
But the walls are too high
Because it was built
From years of hatred
And doubt
So tell me how
Can I get over it?

I'm okay
Those words are on repeat
Whenever I *don't
feel okay
And I try to believe it
But in the end,
I realize I'm not
And never will be

It just kicks in
Without a warning
Like a storm during a calm sunny day
So sudden
It's something you can't control
And it's scaring me
It might be the thing that will **** me,
Not an accident
Nor sickness
Or a homicide
But a thought,
That's what will **** me
And I don't think I want it to
