I'm Not a Perfect Person


I’m Not a Perfect Person

 

Why did it start?

How did it start?

It’s wrong

We both know it

even though sometimes

We don’t really notice


 

From the laughs we’ve had

To the sins we’v

I’m ashamed

But you release the pain

That runs through my veins

 

Man this is insane

If anyone knew about us

It would be different

just trust

When you said

“ I Love You” I knew I couldn’t stop it

Just had to think  about that

You don’t know the true me

 

I’m not perfect

Seems like it doesn’t matter

The things you do

to keep me around

I scream in my head with no sound

Because i know it’s wrong

You do too

 

I can’t believe I’m  saying this

“ I Love You Too’

I don’t think it will stop

This happened for a reason

That’s why

We get along so well

 

The love we share

Isn’t fair

I don’t care

I’m happy with  you

It isn’t going to

Stop

It will never

Stop…..

It’ll only  get

Better
