For l am the night and he is the day For us there can be only one way

We pass each other in the halls

Spitting and spewing as if we were having a brawl

The words that fall out of my mouth are lies

Isolating my heart to save me from the inevitable cries

My heart was broken before

Shattered like glass by mon amour

You're arrogant, annoying, and crude I shouldn't want you, but for some reason I do

The faint gleam in your eyes makes me wonder

Is there something more for me to find under?

I am being ridiculous

Of course his moves aren't formulated or meticulous

Oh, why must my heart have hope Why couldn't I surrounded it with rope

But I doubt even that could help me to escape your spell

The one you cast me under works all too well

Alas, I must hide my love in the shadows Masking my feelings as to seem shallow

For I am the night and he is the day For us there can be only one way
