Thank you so much.

What do I mean by it? Yikes...It's so hard for me to write out my feelings and when I do, it seems to come out wrong. Would it sound weird if I said I honestly don't know what this song is about? I wrote it at 3am one night...

There's this girl that I like a LOT, and we are good friends. I KNOW she doesn't like me. She makes me question everything that I think and it's about just feeling so confused. I know it's bad for me to waste so much time thinking about her and dwelling on it, when I know it's something that will never happen. I WANT to stop liking her. I NEED to stop liking her. And at the same time I don't want either of those because I CAN'T. This song shows the two sides of me fighting for control - my mind and my heart. I'll try to pull away and she'll try to draw closer but when I try to draw near to her, she backs off. The end line can be taken two ways: a) my mind wins and I've given up on her OR b) things get so crazy that I just want to end it all.

I'm not sure which I meant at the time but they both fit.

"loving to hate, and hating to love" Yeah, I like that.

Really I wish you would take this song your own way. If you think it applies to something you're going through, that's great.

Like I said, my feelings come out so very wrong on paper (or the computer screen). For a song that I think I was truly honest with my feelings on, check out face value.

Thank you for your kind comments, and constructive criticism is always welcome.
