What I Know
I know I shouldn't feel this way,
I know I should understand,
Maybe even be happy for you,
But hey,
I don't always like what I know.
I don't like the way she's always by your side,
The way she holds your attention with a mere glance,
I don't like the way I'm powerless to speak,
The way you can silence me with one word.
I don't like how much power you have over me,
I'm but a puppet,
And you are a sharp blade,
Cutting my strings just to watch me fall.
Who are you to make me feel this way?
The man behind the mask,
The man I'll never know.
It hurts too much to love,
Too much to even attempt winning a place in your heart.
I know I should give up these childish infatuations,
But...
It hurts too much to love,
I'll take anger instead.
