I Wish I Had The Nerve To Tell You I'm A Wreck

So this next post is about a girl(Go figure). We've been friend's for a long time and I've gone to great lengths for this person. It's weird, she's gotten me to be the most spontaneous I've ever been for someone. Anyway, the song is called "Sincerely Yours" by Hit The Lights.




Artist: Hit The Lights
Song: "Sincerely Yours"

Lyrics: "Sincerely Yours"


Wake up and let go
Of these feelings that I've had for you
It's easier said than done
So give up (give up) and let go (let go)
Of these feelings that I've had for you
Why couldn't you be the one?

'Cause it's a guilty pleasure
Deciding whether you were ever mine or not
But the truth's apparent
That you weren't ever mine to start

What will it take to make you understand that I
I'm not lying when I say I need you
What will it take to make you understand that I
I'm not lying when I say I need you

So don't close your eyes

Every night I kept you up
I never once heard you say stop
But right now I wish I had
I wish I had the nerve to tell you that I'm a wreck
But what really did you expect?
You never listened to what I said to you (what I said to you)

'Cause it's a guilty pleasure
Deciding whether you were ever mine or not
But the truth's apparent
That you weren't ever mine to start

What will it take to make you understand that I
I'm not lying when I say I need you
What will it take to make you understand that I
I'm not lying when I say I need you (I need you)

Now this broken shell of a boy
Falls to pieces with no choice
At the sound of her voice he falls apart
Now this broken shell of a boy
Falls to pieces with no choice
At the sound of her voice he falls apart,
He falls apart, he falls apart, he falls apart...

What will it take to make you understand that I
I'm not lying when I say I need you
What will it take to make you understand that I
I'm not lying when I say I need you

I need you



Now the thing about this girl is the fact that I had been chasing her since high school. When we first met, I had a girlfriend at the time, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't think she was the coolest girl in the world. I guess I didn't realize the way I really felt until WAY later, but that's not even a big deal. I've had my feelings go up and down for this girl. I'd like her for a while, then I'd get over it and then it would come back next year or something haha. I swear we had the worst timing when it came to that lol.

But this song pertains to the one-sided end of the deal. The feelings I had when hers were fleeting and it was probably too late but it wasn't easy for me to just get over. I would seriously wake up and try to convince myself to not be so miserable. That she's just a girl and there are more out there, but it was never an easy feat. The truth is that I was miserable even without her in the picture, and she was my escape. She made everything better when we talked long into the night. Our conversations would end when either the sun came up or one of us fell asleep.

Then there's that verse that talks about how the boy falls to pieces at the sound of her voice. I can't help but connect there because every time we would stop talking, I would begin to get over it and start to move on. Then we would talk once and it would seem like everything was better and I would just fall right back into the hole I was trying to crawl out of.

Dude, I sound so lame lol

Also, any feedback would be good. One thing I was wondering about was like, would it be better to post the lyrics first, or leave it how it is with the video first?
