{What's Good For Me}

{Verse 1}

I once dreamt of the perfect girl and then I realized
I wasn't dreaming but I was starring right into her eyes
Deep as the bluest skies; flashy auburn hair
I caught of glimpse of Heaven's gate somewhere deep inside her stare
Never cared so much for another person in my life
Fantasies of introducing you as my charming wife
The months flew by and you we're happy in my arms
In love with my charm and felt secure from any harm
But the switch flipped fast; never got a second chance
Became a picture of the past; alone and left me in a trance
Now every glance I get to make in your direction
Reminds me of the brief time I carried your affection
Reflection stays still, rejection flowing in my veins
This injection doesn't fix me; it simply numbs the pain
Got me thinking I’m insane, caught me drinking toxins
I guess love can have such an effect on a person

{Chorus}

I know what's good for me but I want you instead
It feels like a fantasy but it's real in my head
I need another chance, baby I don't know why
This feeling that you give me from the look in your eyes
I know what's good for me but I want you instead

{Verse 2}

Now the only time I get to see this perfect girl is in my dreams
But it seems I can't fall asleep
So I weep and keep hoping that this steep fall doesn’t sweep my sorry ass off my feet and break my self-esteem
Haunted by the screams and shattered by the memories
Just to get you back I would surpass and break the boundaries
Without you the desire for this life doesn’t exist
I would have tied a rope around my heart and wrapped it to your wrist
I’m crawling and I’m begging just to get a simple phone call
I started taking my frustration out on the stinking walls
My knuckles are scarred and purple but it won’t bring you back
All I can do now is lay my emotions on this track
I know I sound pathetic; I know it’s weak and sad
But I can be the man in your life you never had
A provider, a supporter, a lover, a hell a guy
Because with you my confidence is at an all-time high

(Chorus)

{Verse 3}

I’ll wait for you like a stone so I can give you a rock
Connect our souls into one and let our memories lock
You take your place as my queen; I’ll take my place as your king
Watch you blossom in this world as I’m giving you wings
Release you from the stress; less worries and no pressure
You know that you and I we’re destined to be together
So baby, take a leap of faith and tear down the gates
Forget your insecurities; your kingdom await

(Chorus)
{Bridge}
I know what’s good for me, but I want you instead (2x)
(Chorus)
