All the reasons not to

You fly away and take so long to return
You have crooked teeth soon to be a brace face
All you talk about is work
You hurt me before
Because what they all say will be right
These are the reasons not to

There are so many more reasons not not to
And those are the ones that count
The clock doesn't stop
It's time to live
The life you dream to live

Argue Quick

I do not like to argue
Especially with you
Let's make this a quick one
There are better things to do

Getting along and making it work
That's what friends do
Understanding conflict and disagreement
Apologizing, empathizing, compromising

Today we argued and that's okay
There is still one thing I've yet to say
You have helped me smile and grow
Deep inside I think you know

Why I am scared to talk some more
Afraid that you may close the door
But I feel that you understand
And that we feel alike

Playing it safe is not enough
We're holding back instead of being tough
The better chance would be so surreal
Because it's what I've been dreaming for years

I'm glad to be this scared
Not many get the privilege
Lucky for me you scare me a lot
And that's perfect

Who would want the next best thing
If they already know what's best
There is no change of plans you see
Cause you're the only one who has my key
