strands in your eyes remind me of a time   when nothing really mattered at all   when your voice shakes i know you mean what you say   i'm sorry i can't get it through my thick skull      one question to ask - i need to relax   it couldn't really be all that bad   i start to speak - my tongue gets weak   i probably should not say a thing      how do i begin to compete with all these custom built machines?      your best friends can make the worst dents   if you let them know what you have inside   and for two years a smile here   when it would commit suicide      i can't cope i need something to close   i mean this fizzling out a friendship is wrong   the questions were hard but you went too far   when you reminded me i only had one      how do i begin to compete with all these custom built machines?   how should i take what i recieve in messages you sent to me?   how do i begin to compete with all these custom built machines?   why can't you finish anything?   why can't you just say what you mean?      these words are the worst   i'm bleeding, it hurts   all i need is some closure   more than a friend - no never again   you say my name and "its over"      inside this heart there lies a beat   inside you somewhere i'll find me   i'll make this distant dream come true   if the last thing that i do
