I'm Melting!

Rainer Maria

can we

start this conversation over?

you are looking over

my shoulder to impress someone tonight.



i'm dying from only

listening to you,

and though i smile,

it's just because i want to like you.



the truth is, i'm overwhelming you

with lies and though i try,

there's no honesty in me tonight.



can we

start the introductions over?

you are looking over my shoulder

to impress someone tonight.



i'm dying from only

listening to you,

and though i'm quiet,

i'll find my voice tonight.



i know that i can be cold sometimes.

there was snow on the ground

when i was born,

and the stars didn't shine

that night.



take me out, take me out,

and i'll melt, i'll melt.



all the way down.
