My First Love, by Jesse Subscribe to rss feed for Jesse

These thoughts
These feelings I know
I don't know what to think
I don't know how to feel

Everything's confused
Everything's blank
Do I smile? Do I cry?
Do I scream? Do I yell?
Do I give in?... Do I say no?
All emotions in limbo
All emotions hanging

You're complex and you confuse me
I've seen many sides 
Many sides of you

How do you feel?
I'll never know
Lies, truth, deceit
Love, confessions, illusions
....How am I supposed to feel?

Do you care? How am I to know?
Do you care?... If I care?

I really don't know
One second, all is right
The next, all is wrong

I've said "I love you"
And you've said it back
But is that how you really feel?
Somehow, I'm not so sure

Do I move on?
Try finding "Mr. Right"?
Or keep your thoughts near?
Will you come back for me?

I've tried everything
I guess it hasn't been enough
You're leaving me...
Do I leave you first?....

I just don't know
I'm leaving it at that
I think I have to let go
Of my very first love.....
