It's not that easy.

What can I do to make you care? Maybe the weather's just making you cold.

You wanted me back so badly.. and now what? I'm just a little trophy on your shelf. You can tell people I'm yours - maybe you just don't want anyone else to have me. But why then, when it seems like you don't even want me for yourself. I'm collecting dust and you've stopped admiring me - until someone points me out. Then you smile, and think I'm a beautiful addition to your belongings. That's all I am to you, and if you tell me that I'm more than that, well, you know I won't believe it.

"It's what you do to the people you say you love, that's what matters. It's the only thing that counts."

And you're not doing anything.

If I'm not carrying on a conversation - what conversation do we have?

I know you think I'm beautiful. But at this point that's all I'm sure of. Looks aren't everything boy, and you don't even know who I am anymore. I guess I don't know you either. Maybe we're just stuck on the idea of us, not the reality. In reality I don't know where we're going, and our future doesn't look so bright. Not if life's going this way. But I won't give up on you - not just yet.

Don't just tell me that you love me. I want you to prove it, because at this point I'm finding it hard to believe that you do...

I am falling down the mountain

We started climbing the highest mountain, and we were making our way to the top. But somewhere along the way somethings gone wrong. I'm stuck in the middle and gravity's dragging me back towards earth. Friction's trying hard to help me... but I can't hold on forever. You're traveling so much faster, I don't think you even notice. But if you took a look down, you'd see me losing grip. You'd toss me a rope if I asked, but I don't want to drag you down. There's too much gravity, and the snow's turning into ice... friction's starting to slide... how have you pressed on? I've never been much of a climber, I can't conquer what's uncertain, and you... you love the risk. Can't you see I can't keep up? I'm closer to the bottom, if I fell now I'd be fine. You're almost to the top - I'll stay down here and catch you if you should start to fall, we'll both go down together, and our landing will be soft. I don't want you to get hurt. Be careful on your climb, you've been pretty good so far. We were parallel at one point, but I just can't keep up, and I've seen you lose your balance once or twice.. but don't worry, I'll catch you if you fall. As for me, I'll press on. They say the climb is worth it. It'll take me longer than it will take you, but I think I'll meet you there. Just promise me you'll wait for me when you reach the top.
