the way that you see me

(But when I close my eyes
The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?)
I wish I could be the way that you see me
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
(Dream, the same time you're sleeping)
Open up and be the way that you see me
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping

I wish we had the same dreams
But I haven't been dreaming
I got a cloud of darkness over me, suppressing my feelings
I'm seeking meanings of Earth
Show me the places to search
It's way harder seeing clearly when my hand's up your skirt
When it's over I'll be sitting inside my car
And regretting all that I did
Write a tally on my heart
Yeah, I hope you leave me soon
'Cause I keep getting more attached
Just whisper me to sleep
To slip the knife in my back

But when I close my eyes
The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?

My mentality actually going shit
Watching all their happiness, I'm practically sick
Yeah you don't see that I'm a kid
With all these problems evolving inside of me
I'm seeing two of you
And you don't see a single flaw in me

Opening and closing it, but
I'm trying to learn from it
I believe in healing it, but
Nothing is permanent
Wisdom what I lack
My decision-making game is weak
Weaker than you think I am
I'm nowhere close to what I want to be

Be the way that you see me (Be, be, be, be, be, be)
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping (Yeah, dream, dream, dream, dream)
I wish I could be the way that you see me
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping

But when I close my eyes
The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?

Every second I mess up for like the third time
You should've left the first time, the worst time
And everything decrepit but it's alright
I swear that you're the pinnacle
Feelings for you ain't minimal
They overflowed and never oversold
I wasn't into all my BS
Working on my patience
Leave for like a week
And come back giving you the same shit
Your parents probably hate me
Staying can be dangerous
'Cause my love is potent
Only you can help me change it

But when I close my eyes
The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?
