Stuck

The things that happen alone
the way you act so grown

Around your friends and mine
it sends my feelings into a bind

Everytime I look at you
you disappoint me through and through

The funny thing is...I love you
and yet, you leave me jaded and blue

Its all in secret all we do
but only if everyone knew

It seems to hurt so good
there's just no way it should

I feel so helpless..I'm stuck!
and its perfectly clear I have no luck

You don't feel the same about me
and still it doesn't change the way I see

My mind races, my heart paces
I feel like i'm in two different places!

I really don't want to like you at all
but every night my goal falls

I slip back into your arms
there should be some sort of alarm

To remind me of how bad I'll hurt later
but for now my feelings seem much greater

Your beautiful eyes deceive
and make it hard for me to leave

You make me insane
you think this is a game

But my feelings are so for real
I wish fate would cut me a deal

I hate everything about you
why does this have to be the card I drew?

My heart has been dragged through the muck
and even yet...I'm stuck!
