Too Real for You ~¤Kai from Trizzys' Boys¤~

Intro

I gave you every part of me,

Even the ones you couldn't see.

I thought you'd catch me if I fell,

But you just watched me go through hell.

Verse 1

At seventeen, I learned to lie,

Paint on a smile and keep my eyes dry.

I buried every broken dream,

Became the boy you wanted to see.

I wore your love like a disguise,

Hid all my pain behind my eyes.

You kissed the mask upon my face,

But hated what it hid away.

Hook

Look at me,

What do you see?

The boy you loved,

Or what's left of me?

Look at me,

I'm on my knees.

I gave you everything,

You gave up on me.

Instrumental Break

Verse 2

I still remember Tuesday night,

Your suitcase waiting by the light.

You wouldn't even meet my eyes,

Just packed your things and said goodbye.

You said I'd changed, I wasn't the same,

Like finding myself was something to blame.

I finally showed you who I could be,

But you only loved the old version of me.

Emotional Build

I tore your pictures off the wall,

And watched the broken frames all fall.

I thought the memories might fade,

But every night they still remain.

I gave you love, you gave me doubt,

You watched me break, then walked right out.

And now I'm left here wondering why,

I wasn't worth another try.

Explosive Chorus

I WAS INVISIBLE TO YOU!

No matter what I tried to do!

I broke myself to fit your dreams,

But nothing was enough, it seems!

I SCREAMED UNTIL MY VOICE WAS GONE!

You turned away and carried on!

You said you'd never leave my side,

Then disappeared while I was dying inside!

Instrumental Break

Quiet Refrain

Was I too quiet?

Was I too loud?

Did I embarrass you

When we were in a crowd?

Was I too fragile?

Was I too weak?

Or was I just a temporary

Kind of thing you'd keep?

I keep on asking,

Though I know it's true.

I wasn't hard to love,

I was just too real for you.

Breakdown

I don't want another empty apology,

Or hear you say you still remember me.

I don't want the promises you couldn't keep,

Or another lonely night without sleep.

You had your flaws, and I had mine,

But I would've loved you through the darkest times.

You only wanted the parts that shined,

And left the broken ones behind.

Final Vocal Climax

Look at me,

What do you see?

The boy you loved,

Or what's left of me?

Look at me,

I'm on my knees.

I gave you everything,

You gave up on me.

Outro

I keep on asking,

Though I know it's true.

I wasn't hard to love,

I was just too real for you.
