Attention

I just wanted your affection
But you never seemed to wanna try
I thought I had your attention
But then you talk to another guy

I just wanted your affection
But you never seemed to wanna try
I thought I had your attention
But then you talk to another guy

It's getting stupid now, the amount times I've been through this
My silly little head just won't stop thinking
I still think of the night you gave me something
That's all I ever think and think about

It was actually fun before you even looked in my direction
Now night after night I just want your affection
Don't give me that, don't give me this
Just please please please give me more than just a kiss

I've tasted it now, yeah, it's over
I didn't know I was hungry until I tasted it
You've done it now, and you'll never hear the end of it
You should've just said no from the very beginning
But no, it always just comes back to this
Staring down the hallways, and never getting noticed
Eat sleep, write repeat, it's that never ending paradox again

I just wanted your affection
But you never seemed to wanna try
I thought I had your attention
But then you talk to another guy

I just wanted your affection
But you never seemed to wanna try
I thought I had your attention
But then you talk to another guy

You'd think I'd have enough of this now, but no it ain't over
Every single day it just grows older
I've had enough of seeing your face everywhere
But some part of me still wants to keep it
You see, I contradict myself all the time
Most of the time I don't even know what I'm saying
There's times that living in world of isolation
Doesn't seem like the end of the world

That's me, in the corner of the room
Eyes closed, spaced out, no clue
It hides them away, so they won't escape
Not letting in any other living thing too
I wanna see, I wanna know
I wanna feel what you told me so
I let them in, they bite they shout
No wonder I keep them out

I just wanted your affection
But you never seemed to wanna try
I thought I had your attention
But then you talk to another guy
