Blind
Im not really sure where we are supposed to or could possibly go from here
This is not the same
There is an emptiness that has settled here
We both know it, feel it
But sure my love, I'll play along
You know how much i cringe and crumble in the face of conflict
and will set myself on fire to spare another's feelings, to negatively affect their state of mind
So it is only appropriate that I, for the umpteenth time, set myself ablaze for you
Keeper of my heart, master of my mind
My blushing smile one minute
and the next my regret filled tears
Sobbing in the shower, my car, into my pillows
Anywhere I can find where I'm less likely to be heard
It's become quite the embarrassment for others to witness what I fool I continue to be,
how I allow myself to pretend to still be so goddamn blind
