Two Minds

I fall in two minds that leave me with mixed feelings and questions...should I love 

you or let you go?

Am i sure that i need you? Will i ever know?

Why did i fall so hard? Why was it you i fell for?

How did you scar my heart so bad? Why do i love you more than before?

Should i move on before it's too late?

Why is it when i work, i can never concentrate?

Who else will i meet that i find is made for me?

Why do i think you were really made for me?

Why are you the poison running through my vains?

Is there a cure for these memories planted in my brain?

Will there ever be a time i can't tell you how i feel anymore?

Do you think i'd still wait for you until forever? Am i even sure?

I'm lost in what to do, so what can i say?

If wishes come true, why can't things my way?

On the Verge of a Breakdown

I never had to think twice about my intentions

For the first time ever, i found something i wanted

Something i felt needed to belong to me

Ever since the encounter with you, things' been different

I've changed dramatically, i've become more sensitive

A million thoughts, a million dreams flash inside my mind

Nothing has been able to escape out of my heart

How else can i put it, i think you're my strength

The reason i'm still breathing and not wanting to escape

And sometimes i wonder if i'll ever be on the verge of a breakdown

I'm panicking right now, you just can't see me due to our distance

I don't need to hint anything to you, you know how i am now

But i can't stop the affect if i'm on the verge of a breakdown

My Crime

I'll never understand you, damn you

You keep pulling my heart into you

I dedicated my comfort, I dedicated my time

I offered you the rest of my life

You ran away as if it were a crime

Did I love you too much or too little?

Was I falling off the edge or stuck in the middle?

If it's a crime to not be over you, make an arrest

I'm sorry I pulled out my heart from out my chest

I thought we'd have something that wouldn't die

Wanting me & loving me was your biggest lies

I know that we're moving on, but I'm still left behind

I won't forgive myself for what was my crime

Walking Off

I have to get out of here, i'm not going to go through anymore of this
I'm not going to put myself in pain i can't handle, i'm sick of it
I'm tired of these games with the mini prizes you give away
I'm walking off, away from you, but you need me to stay?
And so what if i do, what't in it for me?
I can't take this torture, you don't even feel anything for me
It sets me off with certain words you tell me, and we're not a couple
If i try to hate you period, the love i hold for you just doubles
And walking off is the best thing i need to do so i can cope a little 
I'm too attatched to you enough, too caught up in the middle
Im losing myself in you so much i should just lose this game
But if i start to walk off, are you going to shout out my name?
