I Think I Am to You

I think I am to you
As coffee is to sleep
You might deserve the two
But only one you need
I think you are to me
As lightning is to rain
Striking so silently
And then you dissipate

I wonder endlessly why you can't understand
That I am not the missing puzzle piece you think I am

I think I am to you
As vodka is to sprite
Just add a dash of juice
You've got a perfect night
I think you are to me
As whiskey is to coke
Sometimes you taste so sweet
Sometimes you make me choke

I wonder endlessly why you can't understand
That I am not the missing puzzle piece you think I am

You walk with so much damn confidence
The way you cling to me don't make sense
I sure as hell ain't your therapist
Don't waste my time like that
And if I hear what you want me to
I still won't have much to say to you
It only gets so much harder than this that much is true

I think this is to you
As lemons are to cuts
Ask me to clean the wound
Then say it hurts too much
I think you are to me
As prayer is to church
You say one hail Mary
Then swear to god it works

I wonder endlessly why you can't understand
That I am not the missing puzzle piece you think I am
