Or to ask you truth or dare.

I shouldn't be given your warmth

Or your adoration;

I can't be trusted with precious things

They're my annihilation.

I want you so badly

But I haven't earned you yet.

I did a lot of things

That maybe I regret.

I want to make it right

But every time I try

I only make it worse;

I have no alibi.

    Myself here.

    No company

    Could fix this.

    Drowning in my own emotion,

    Melting in the not-yet-summer heat.

    I can't think straight,

    Can't be
