Pins and Needles

Never understood how she could,

Mean so little to so many

Why does she mean everything to me?

Is it worth the pain,

With no one to blame?

For all of my insecurities

How did I ever let you go?

Questioning her good intention

Jealousy's a bad invention

When you push on glass, it's bound to break

Even when she was defensive,

It just gave me more incentive

The more you squeeze, the more it slips away

I never walked so far on a lonely street

With no-one there for me

Is it worth the pain, with no one to blame?

For all of my insecurities

How did I ever let you go?

Accept this confession!

...I'm walking on pins and needles

You're not my high possession!

...I'm walking on pins and needles

My conscience is vicious!

...I'm walking on pins and needles

And I'm begging forgiveness!

...I'm walking on pins and needles

I never walked so far on a lonely street,

With no one there for me

It took too long to see her in misery

And now it's clear to me

That it's worth the pain, always take the blame

For all your own insecurities

How did I ever let you go?
