It’s just like you to contest
You wear it like a label on your breast
Don’t you see what this takes of me?
A certain callousness complies
With your charm & in your pride
A hopeful look draped in despise.
I want to give you
Whatever you need.
What is it you need?
Is it what I need?
I want to give you
Whatever you need.
What is is you need?
Is it within me?
It’s hard to explain how I am getting by
On so little from you.
It’s hard to believe that I would let myself
Get so wrapped in you.
There’s got to be something that would
Be worthwhile for me to give to you.
We need a connection but you
Seem to push me far away from you.
The harder I push the further I fall.
Well you don’t mind me being headstrong.
But you don’t want to sing along.
Maybe it’s trite but I can always be wrong
Try not to be wrong.
