Not Today

There's emotion encased Where wishes live I know what I know But maybe I know nothing. I can have a taste of the world outside Watch true loves walking by I can't assume what I see is real But is what I know false. There's the desire in me I change when you change I'm real in both incarnations But I presume one version of you is not. There's the messages you send Full of venom and hate Then you flip on a coin And I'm the love of your life again. I've woken up without the energy Just seeing stream after stream Of reasons to not convince you That I'm the love of your life. So please come to your own conclusions There was no miss selling on my part I just quietly wished That you liked me.
