fiber-optical illusion

girl, i'd take you much more seriously if you had never told me...
that all you ever needed to know about love you learned from a vacuum cleaner
i'd like the drama a whole lot more if i wasn't sucked into it
like, i look at you, and i see a misguided reflection of me trying to be you
i try to relate
to understand
the driving force behind it all is simple...
you give to get
and i try my best to give to get better at giving
you like walks in the park and moonlight romance because you were taught...
that sensitive guys love that stuff...
and you'd like a little piece of one of them
well, here's a little piece for you...
it's called advice...
and it's not something i like to give
hang up on me now, before i do
