It's Time to Get Off the Merry-Go-Round

My mind is reeling.

The gears turning but starting to rust.

You're like a hangover after a great night out.

You leave me waking up with a migraine

And wanting to stay in bed with the blinds closed.

I don't want to be overthinking your every action.

That's what it's come to.

We're stuck on repeat

And neither of us know how to fix it.

We hang out, we make out, then you leave.

You leave and my mind keeps going.

I don't know how to stop on this mery go round of confusion.

I know I need to bring it up

But what happens if you confess I'm just a play thing,

Something to amuse you on a weekend away from reality.

I don't know if I can handle that coming from you.

I could handle it from them because I never let my guard down.

With you I have and it scares me to death.

It scares me how comfortable and trusting I am with you.

It's time to pause the repeating scene and talk.

I just hope you can understand my confusion.
