If I Know You

Toss me another cigarette
You terrify me
This is something I’ll probably regret
Anything to make you want me
I know I wouldn’t be your first choice
So I hide my demons, hope they don’t make too much noise
You’re so sweet and I can’t even form a sentence
You mean so much to me and you only just made an entrance
If I ever loved you, I could find a life
Not one I’d expect, but it’d be just right
See it just makes sense in my head that I’m meeting you now
I don’t want to depend on it but you could turn my life around
Maybe this is a fit of desperation
Would you cure me of my deprecation?
Stuck in a season of diagnosis
I analyze your every emotion
Can you tell I’m stressed?
When I reach out for you to hug me
I only do it so you will touch me
A pathetic quest
I just need to get to know you
Won’t you want me if I know you?
