Face-First!

When I fell in love with you I knew you'd learn to love me too,
Even if you couldn't stand all the stupid stuff I do.
Believe in me, I love you,
Too over-stated to be untrue,
As you hold me up next to the light and watch me as I start to come unglued.
I can't see how you'd say I held on too long
For, you see, there's no way;
I'm not that strong, that strong (I'm not)
So now I come on sugar sweet,
but my best attempts prove weak,
Whether I'm holding tight onto your hand or sucking on your feet
You have no need; you come complete,
No one ever could compete.
As I dive face-first into the odds I know that there's no chance I'll ever beat
I can't see how you'd say I held on too long
For, you see, there's no way;
I'm not that strong, that strong
