Been Chasing Silence

You were perfect for me i was perfect for you
do you remember how we were, do you remember that too?
spilling our guts of affection to one another always late at night
we were either emotionally sprung or maybe it just felt right
either way i find it hard to stop caring about you
even when you told me you had found someone new
sure my heart broke and sure my feelings felt dead
but when i thought i had lost them, they were still brewing instead
i learned this over time, that you're not getting out of my mind
what i learned over time, is that you are who i find
when i meet someone else, i fall back to you
of course you never know, cuz i don't want you too
i figure if i tell you, you won't feel the same
i figure if i tell you you'll just think i'm lame
i can't not stop thinking of your face
i can't not stop imagining your taste
you simply amaze me and i dont know why
you stuck with me so bad i could almost cry
cuz i feel like you'll never wanna make it work
and thats something i've lived with, i know you aren't a jerk
i honestly think you hide your feelings for me deep inside
just reach in and look, please tell me what you find
because if its what i'm feeling too
then i want to know, i need to know what to do
i know my rhyming and words are making me look dumb
but i can't continue to act like my feelings towards you are numb
they arent numb at all they're very much alive
they just need to be heard by which you deprive
if you ever get around and want to talk to me too
you know where to find me, you know what to do
i've always been here waiting its clearer than clear
now that i've made it known, it feels like a year
i shouldnt have waited i should have said it then
before you had to get hurt, i shouldnt have let her win
i should fought for my prize and the man of my dreams
needs a little work, or maybe just some love to be seen
you deserve it so much, i won't leave you alone
you'll have to tell me you hate me and make it known
i'm here for you like the sun in the sky
i'll be here for you till the day that i die
i'm risking it all for you and i'm on the edge
but i'm not giving up, make this my pledge
