In The Eye Of The Beholder
Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder
I tried to hold her closer
Without tipping her over
Over
The course of an upcoming two years
You've become one of my worse fears
While Tryna impress and caress you after confessing what we should do
You seem congested and contested our future I knew
A new thought in your head could possibly come true
But you
Weren't thinking the same way
I told you everyday
Since you were in ninth grade
What I saw was beauty from the outside in
I tried to vocalize it while socializing and sometimes vocalizing songs
You thought I was stunting
Cuz I'm usually leading girls on
But I wasn't fronting
You thought all I wanted was to get in yo" thong
I didn't
I only wanted to stay in your heart and belong
To something more
I adore
Every pore
From head to toe
Cuticle to cuticle you're beautiful
I swear I don't know what happened to us
I find myself stuck
FUCK
I just can't seem to get enough
Of this pain
Hearing your name
I'm going insane
I just tried to text you but the sight of even your contact
Made me depressed I swear I'm going through some internal combat
Because this conflict between what I think we should be
And what we really are is killing me
Maliciously
If I could only let you see through my eyes
And feel through my heart
Even though sometimes it's hard to find
If you could only recognize
How much time it takes to be this desperate for your attention
Not to mention the tension of my muscles makes talking to you some kind of struggle
If you could only feel how I feel
You'd know how it feels to feel a heart broken
Uneven and outspoken
Still if you called I'd treat you like my newborn child awoken
You're my Willy Wonka Golden ticket
Or more like the apple pie of my eye
But no matter what I say you are
You're far away from what I think in dream
But since I'm the one preaching about all of your beauty to behold
I'll just sit here in my sadness
My true feelings I'll withhold
