My Entire Youth

Can I tell you the truth?
Why wouldn't you?
I'm scared I may say the wrong things.
Just don't be like me; think.

I guess so...Okay.
What is it you wanna say?
I don't know where to start.
Try to pull it apart.

First, I think, I wanna say I think you're a great friend.
You know I'll be there for you until the end.
Well...That's why I wanted to talk to you about.
Okay...So, then, spit it out.

I wanted you to know that I would go through hell & back for you.
Well, I would too.
No...You don't get it.
Well this won't be a simple question.

Can you try to be serious?
I have been with this.
Then answer my one question: Who am I to you?
...What are you trying to get to?

If I was scared of the dark, what would you do?
Find a light to give to you.
If I was scared of the light, what then?
Find a cave for you to hide in?

I thought I said be serious about it?
Would you calm down! I have been.
…
Was this about something I'd said?

No...it was about what you didn't say.
What? When? On what day?
This day. Just now. Two seconds ago.
I don't get it. How so?

If I was scared of the dark, you'd find a light for me.
And? I thought I was being sweet.
Maybe if I wasn't in love with someone, I would have thought it was.
I'm not sure I know what you're talking of.

You said you loved me over & over again.
Well, I do. Or, I did. Up until our end.
Well, true love shouldn't falter because of some silly mistake.
I know you know we couldn't be together always.

I know that now.
Yeah, how?
If you loved me, you would have walked in the dark with me.
Same thing.

No it's not.
Oh, stop-
No! You lied, & that's my point. You never loved me one bit.
Well...I thought I did.

If I was scared of the light, you would find me a cave.
Where else would you stay?
See, if you loved me, you would have said something else.
I don't know what I felt.

So you thought lying would be better suited for this?
Wasn't it?
No...No.
So?

If you loved me, you would help me into the light.
You're over-thinking my lines
No. I'm proving to you that you're lying even when you're telling the truth.
That makes sense to you?

Can I tell you the truth?
I already said for you to.
I never loved you, as well.
So why am I on trial?

Because you did it out of confusion & ignorance.
And you didn't?
No...
….

I said it out of pity, since you were just so lost.
Why didn't you help my cause?
Why did you let me fall?
I never let you stumble. I was there through it all.

I taught you how to be a man & say how you feel.
Was it my fault that you decided to steal?
What was stolen from you?
My entire youth.
