I don't expect you to understand
I don't want you to understand
I myself don't even understand
What my feelings are for you
But I know whatever they are
They're strong
Stronger than I've felt before
Which is why I can't handle it
And I've broken down
Because it's hard for me to let go
Even when, especially when
What I'm holding onto is covered in thorns
And I'm stupid enough to pick at them
But you wouldn't understand.
