Supposed To Do
Supposed To Do (1/11/2008)
I just don’t know what I’m supposed to do
Should I back away or stay close to you?
Do you need to breathe a bit without me?
Do you need to see you don’t have to doubt me?
Cause I just don’t know what move to make
And I can not help if you don’t explain
My head is swimming, my thoughts aren’t straight
My chest is wrought with the stress I take
And, at best, I wake with vision blurry
It’s in my heart to listen, worry
If this can’t hurry, then I’ll take my time
But I need to know what’s on your mind
And I need to know that you’ll be fine
That you’re stronger still, okay inside
I want to know you don’t hate this line
I don’t want to see you say goodbye
But these lines, they just don’t matter
They really don’t, I’m just so shattered
Caught off guard by the way you shut down
I’m so in pain, but I won’t give up now
But I just don’t know what I’m supposed to do
Do you really want me close to you?
I just hope for truth exposed by you
Of what you hold that’s cold to you
Notes: I think this is what I wanted “Short, Simple, and Confused” to be.
