So Much at Stake

On the desperation of knowing the one you love

I want to know you,

I want to understand you.

This puzzle is more dire than ever

There's so much at stake

I want to read your mind

To help you,

To aid you

There's so much at stake

I want to clear something up

I’m selfish,

It's not all for you

There’s so much at stake

I want to know who you love

Is it me or another

Why wont you just say.

There's so much at stake

I want you to tell me

No, I beg you to tell me

What is happening in that head.

There’s so much at stake
