The Way that I Am

by Lizzard/Aries-Cancer-Pisces - Not entered

I can't fall in love with you,
I might suffer a death worse than living...
You're so charming
I am disabled in your prescence.

You pick at me,
I'm a scab ready to bleed...
...And you don't mind if I do,
...If I do.

What are you?
What are you doing?
...To turn my world upside down,
...Upside down.
Is this funny?
I'm not laughing,
...You should see by my frown,
...By my frown.

I can't help the way that I am,
...The way that I am.

I am disabled in your prescence,
My oh-so-charming man...
You read my mind through my eyes,
...It's all part of your plan.

I can't...
I can't help the way that I am,
...The way that I am...
But, I can help
    Loving
       You.
