Why do I even try

When I already know

Everyone will walk away from me

Leave me stranded, all alone

On this island of make believe.

And when I look across

Look at you

My heart's begging me to stay

But my mind's begging me to go.

And I'm stuck

In this tug of war

Between my head and my heart.

But what happens

When you meet the right person

At the wrong time?
