Daredevil
Finding every single thrill
When did this begin?
What hole am I trying to fill?
When will this end?
Doing things, I never liked
Skiing, hiking, sports, I hate them all
So why is it that I biked with you?
When did I fall?
I never was in control
But somehow, I’m losing it
This feeling I wish to annul
I don’t like this, not one bit
If I ever seemed desperate
Never more than now
I can’t accept it
I’m not going to allow
Head over heels
This is not okay
Stop focusing on how he makes you feel
And push him away
You’re difficult to love
You know that
So, stop trying to compute what you’re void of
You know he’ll leave you flat
But here I am
Playing along
Waiting to see you, with anxious hands
Going somewhere I don’t belong
Am I ready to let down the walls?
I’ve worked so hard to put myself in solitude
I can’t possibly be okay to fall
No, I changed my attitude
I’m no good at baseball
But here I am
At your beck and call
I don’t understand
My heart and safety are on the line
Ready to risk it all
Because here I stand, this time
A daredevil
