give me

Give me, a venti iced coffee
on a summer day
A few clouds, that's okay
At least I know there's always
a promise for rain
(I know there will always be pain
until You've come...)

Give me, a book about life
and how the only thing we know
is that, we never know
How pain brings pleasure
Being last means we're first
and how I'm always the first to give an excuse
How we rationalize everything
until we're guilty of nothing
(that is an oxymoron)
and I'm the moron
who fell in love with an idiot
and how I'm the idiot for staying
But if I leave was I ever really loving
if I can just fall out of it?

Give me, honesty
So honestly, I probably
don't want to hear
what you're about to say
but please, say it anyway!
Agree to disagree,
but really, believe me
I'm leaving, so I can come back
You're leaving and, "I told you so"
and yes, you're right,
I'm not right,
but you still can't sleep at night
So tell me, you hate me
because you love me so much!
and I'll tell you about how
Everything you do drives me crazy
but baby, I miss it when you're gone
So kiss me and stay so long
because honestly,
we've both been so wrong

Give me, adrenaline
Feel of the wind
Lets jump off the dock
forget the clock
give me seconds of shock
in a cold shower
Let me ride off that rock
climb this tree
So I can see
off the mountain top
Just to go into valley's
I can't have a high without a low
I know it's fun to not know
what's below
Let's forget the past
even if tonight doesn't last
("it won't last..")
Shhh, don't tell me the ending,
I'm still experiencing the beginning
Life whispers death in our ears
with fears but
give me a moment of ecstasy
another reason to not say "no"
why would I do that
turns into, "I can't go..."
"Why not?" Actually,
don't ask questions until its over
It's obvious when we discover
what we all become with a loaded revolver

Give me, chocolate
dark and deep
strawberries dipped
almonds in thick
dried or dripped
melted and cooled
you know I can't say no
I save my "yes"
for chocolate,
I'd forget the rest
...wait, sex?

Give me, music
slow and steady
but only until the climax
"Go, okay, I'm ready!"
A progression like a hilltop
Let's dance until we get where we're going
I'm okay with not knowing
As long as you're by my side
So let's slide and glide
Dance with one hand free
but if I spin away
You've gotta pull me
right back to stay

Give me, back the promises
I gave you, And when you do,
tell me you'll always be true
You'll love me only
I know you've been lonely
Come back to me
You know I'll love you solely
