Omen - October 5-6, 2010

When I tell you that I like you, would you believe that I do?

If my eyes stop seeing you, would you want me to?

My lips can only utter your name, and I can’t seem to repaint your face in my brain.

If I tell you these things, would you doubt if it’s true?

I shed a tear whenever I keep myself strong. It’s a battle between right and wrong.

‘You want me’, that’s what you said. ‘You want to be with me’, your words echo in my head.

When I tell you that I love you, do you believe that I do?

If my heart stops beating for you, will yours stop beating for me too?

My love, you know that it’s you, and these words are all for you.

If I tell you this is true, would you doubt? What would you do?

I keep my calm in thoughts of your arms. I pull my strength from the comfort of your memory.

And this is the last rope, our first fight; a warm hope for a cold night.

When I tell you that I dream of you, would you doubt if I really do?

If my lips stop saying your name, would you think that it was all just a game?

You can look me in the eye and figure out if it’s a lie, but I’d tell you anyway it’s true.

But darling if I tell you I’m falsified, should you walk away, hold me, I might break down and cry.

I remain firm in my stand but the wind’s got my hand, taking me away to another land.

‘Don’t let go’, is what I tell you. ‘Don’t let me go’. It’s a delicate trap.

When I tell you that I’m happy, will you believe that I am?

I’d be lying if I say ‘yes’ but this one is true: You are my happy. So if you’re gone you would know I’d be blue.

You love me, I love you, but the world does not want me to.

My sweet, if one day I start to pull the brakes please shout you don’t want me to. My face may go straight but know it’s what I want to hear from you.

If I ask you to leave, what would you say? But if I try, pull me back. I might step back but note that in that moment all I would want to do is be wrapped around by you.

Darling if one day I tell you I don’t love you, it’ll be suicide, a lie I wish you won’t buy. I might push you away a million times, but kiss me, and know that it’s you I need.

If I let you go one day, would you leave or would you stay?

When time comes that all becomes dreary, will you keep me? Or would you rather set me free?

I can only stop to wait and see. The clock goes tick and tock, one, two and three.

This love has got me coming undone. So let my words sink in, my love, I’ll never be gone.

You know by heart I am with you. Let me breathe the air you do. And if in time I push you away, it’d be a lie if I don’t want you to stay.

If worst comes to worst you’ll never hear me say ‘leave’. For this battle isn’t over as long as we believe.

I’ll be thinking of you tonight, pretending to hug you oh so tight. I’ll grab the chance to dream of you; I’ll brace myself for the love from you.

If it’s wrong to be with you, then I’m happy being wrong. If it’s a gamble to love you, some time ago I raised my bet for you all along.

So if the next morning I’m giving up the fight, just think of what I said tonight. <3
