I Can'T

You ask me to come over,
I will but wake me up when it's 
over.
I'm not a bad guy I'm just 
drunk on her love and I'm 
trying to get sober.
I need a new drug,
Im trying to get additive to 
your love.
I don't feel nothing when you 
kiss me.
I don't get emotional when you 
say you love me.
We known each other for a long 
time but you don't know the 
real me.
When I smile, the sadness can 
you see?
When I talk, can you hear what 
I need?
When you stare in my eyes, 
can you see where the joy use 
to be ?-Mario Perez
