Sodium

You come to me to be assured,
That you are loved, that I care,
I tell you I only want you to be you,
But that of my heart, please, beware,

The lists are written,
The paper doesn't lie,
We aren't meant to be,
Please, neither will cry,

The world is an ocean,
But you are not my drop,
For I am a bit of sodium,
Just waiting for that fizzle - pop?

It's not about how nice you are,
It's not about how you drive your car,
You know it too,
I'm not the one for you,
Why kid yourself, why force it,
But to you I'll come and sit,
Lay my weary head,
Take away all I dread,
Yet
what
I really fear,
Is facing death,
Without that one tear,
Don't you see, my darling?
Don't you see, my dear?
The chemistry just isn't there,
So as I lie awake at night,
And you smooth my hair,
Hear my silent whispered warning,
Of just how much I care,
I'm leaving soon to feel the sun,
For that is where I'll find the fun,
Goodbye, I sigh,
Just a little drop of sodium.
