You tell her shes different but its still not enough to appease you.
You tell her not to change but you still dont choose her.
You tell her shes beautiful but what she hears is not beautiful enough.
God & Man
You tell her she needs to change and every time she does its still not enough.
She changes herself so much she forgets who she is.
Fixated upon her reflection, analyzing every flaw.
God & Man
Wondering exactly what it is about her they dont like.
So she pines after achievements because at least thats consistent.
I love you slipped out of her mouth only to be met with silence followed by explanations.
You tell her she needs to move on from the past and skeletons that dance with her.
You tell her to be happy alone but is that bad to want to share a life with someone?
You tell her she needs to put herself out there more.
You tell her all these things and shes just left confused and alone and not sure what to do.
Waiting for someone she doesnt know even exists but hopes and prays he comes soon.
Lying there alone at night wondering when someone will lay next to her and want to stay.
Standing alone in a bar, making eye contact with strangers.
Hoping maybe it clicks.
So she stumbles out alone as passer-bys drop lines to ears that are mute because shes heard it all.
Shes believed it all.
