The price


What’s wrong with me?
Every time I see your face
My heart starts beating
All over the place
I can’t stop these feelings
These emotions you ignite
Even though you hurt me
I still hate it when we fight
The pain that’s in my heart
The things I’ll never say
I guess it’s true you know
There’s always a price to pay
Well this is my price
A pain that cuts so deep
Making me afraid
That I’ll never be complete
Tears hidden in my eyes
A broken heart that barely works
Sadly that doesn’t even
Dent the list of all of my hurts
I know you want to fix this
And you would if you knew how
But you can’t ask me for answers
That  are yours to figure out
