The Looking Glass

My feelings for you lie dormant
At a pit, at the bottom of my stomach
I try act like I don't care
But you're not making it too easy.

Everything you say is like nails on a chalk board
I always try to take two steps forward
But I'm always making mistakes and bad moves
And everything I say is stupid

I'm sick of feeding you compliments
And getting smug answers in return
I'm sick of being the good guy
The one who always gets hurt

For once it's your turn
To be on the outside looking in
I can't make a move or say
Or do anything

I don't wanna say I miss you
I'm not gonna admit I'm jealous
I'll just let this all pass
I'll watch you date her, I'll watch you last
I'll watch you burn, I'll watch you crash.
I'll witness it all from behind the looking glass.
