Not The Girl.

I'm holding myself by tiny threads,
Damaged by the way your lips curve a line,
Messing with my head,
You will never ever be mine.

Sneaking glances in a crowded room
Jealous of the way she probably holds you
I'm slowly burning in the light of you

I listen to old records
Hoping to find words
To speak if I should get the chance
But nothing feels right.

Now I'm pacing back and forth,
Wishing I would've walked up
and said the words
Just so you Knew
I want to be the girl.

But I'm not the girl,
who's the center of your world,
Not the girl,
You want to see smile,
Not the girl,
You've been waiting for your whole life,
Not the girl,
You want to watch walk down the aisle.

I may not be the girl, But you're the boy I'll love for the rest of my life.

I will never blame you,
You never thought you could be cruel,
I lay awake till 2 A.M.,
Thinking of you.
