A confused love while torn apart

Roses with thorns grow on my heart
As I waited for you
To tell me how you feel
Do you want me? Yes or No
Is it just a game

We talk for hours, nothing new
We laughed for hours, nothing new
We went out twice, nothing new
Do you want me? Yes or No
Is it just a game

I don't understand you anymore
All I want is you
But I'm just a second option to you,
until you're first doesn't want you

You told me I don't have
The level of freak you do
Yet, you still want me
You said there's no game
But I can't tell if it's true or not

I love you, I want you, you know that
But yet, you love to play games

In silence, you stand,
A presence that commands,
My heart beats for you alone,
Yet your eyes, they don't show.

You know my love, it's true,
But still, you don't speak it through,
A mix of desire and pain,
Leaves me wondering, in vain.

Wondering why
Wondering why
You broke me thrice
While always coming back
For what reason
For Comfort
To prove I'll always want you
Knowing my heart beats for you
Even after you broke it
I'm stuck in a deep hole
With my feelings of; confusion and desires wanting you the most
But you don't want me like that

Do you want me, or is it just a game?
A test of love, a flame?
I'm lost in the confusion,
Torn between love and illusion.

If you're waiting for me to say,
The words that might set you free,
Know that my heart belongs to you,
And my love, it will always be true.
