(no subject)
Sometimes, I don't understand why things happen the way that they do. People. Why they do the things they do. And while I've always been an advocate of doing what you want, I've always been a firm believer in taking responsibility for your actions. And some people's actions, I'm having trouble dealing with. Especially when they say one thing, but then mean another. Or when they lie.
silence reveals where you really are.
Now, that last thing I have a huge gripe with. I know what a lie is. And "not saying anything" about a situation hardly makes you a liar. However, if you know that not saying something is enough to make you feel guilty, than something is wrong with that scenario, no? I do believe that an omission is a betrayal. Especially if you know how delicate the entire situation is. Would you ever betray a friend? Betray a friend like that? It seems to be your modus operandi. But then you always have your excuses. This was never supposed to happen, no one's ever meant to know, right? This isn't the way it's supposed to be, and if you thought so, you're not only telling lies, you're living them too.
i know your desire is to be desired.
This game isn't completely onesided. Not only one is at fault, but also the other. I gave you all that I was, and didn't get much in return. But I know it's probably more than they'll ever get. And to think that you once told me I deserved the world. Maybe I do. Yet at the time, all that I ever wanted was in you. And now I don't even know who you are anymore. You walk around with a mask that isn't even yours, and I began to wonder if I ever really saw you. Because if the person I see now is who you really are, I'm not sure I want to know you. But I'll never know until you start being honest with me. Say anything, but say what you mean. I know you're in love with love. The whole world could crash around you, and that loving feeling would still be your addiction, above all other things you claim to be yours.
you only stand to break my heart, i can tell it by the way you runaway.
It's hard for me to be able to tell what people want. I hardly know what I want half the time. So how can I expect someone else to know? Still, what I do know is that all I want right now is the truth. And no one is giving it to me. What do you do when you know you can't trust anyone? Not even the people that you once would've trusted the world with?
i miss the feeling and everything but you.
What does this all mean anyway? It doesn't change a thing.
