You get so cold when I get close
But get mad when I keep my distance
You want me to want you
but get annoyed when the chips start falling asking for returns
you demand an audience
but fail to appear when the stage is set


I should demand a ransom
for holding my love hostage
you want to receive but never give
You ask of my heart
but you fail to see it's worth
so you take it for granted
so I give it a daily reminder
that you will never give it love
no matter how many times
it might beat for you.
