Mixed Emotions

I'm tired of giving
When I'm not receiving a thing
I'd give you my everything
To end up with nothing again
But I know
That you'll come around

You're filling these voids
That used to be empty as hell
I'm fighting these battles
Locked in a bulletproof cell
But please know
I'm just here to help
So let it all out

You always complain of your life being far too unfair
This hell that I'm living in
It seems like you don't even care
Why don't you
Just open your eyes?
You don't even try
I'm seeing your lies

Why can't you see that you're
Not good for me, but I
Can't explain
The feeling that
I want you in my life

I've captured your animals
But so far I can't call them pets
You've mastered all mine
But somehow I always forget
You hold them
With such disregard
Our minds are so scarred

We're cutting things close
But there's nowhere that I'd rather be
Stuck here in time
With you staying close to me
Come closer
There's no need to be scared
I know our time's scarce

Just a little more time
Just a little more time
Just a little more time
Just a little more time

Why can't you see that you're
Not good for me, oh I
Can't explain
The feeling that
I need you in my life
