Loosing my stomach for rejection
It'd go down easier, if I could just changer perspective
And see the smiling faces when they're smiling back at me
And not the ghosts their absence leaves
It's clear that you can love me
We both surely know this
But only can you love me if you love me in small doses
My invitations are all decently received and I can now accept that few are ever sent to me
But I won't be throwing any pity party
Oh, I know that it's nothing personal
In my life, you want to play a role
But you rather would be cast as a cheerful cameo
I've been on the other end of this sticky situation
Your company is nourishing but I rarely find the craving
And no matter how sweet you are to me
I'll pass then times out of thirteen
And opt to count the lonely hours tasting my own medicine
Which is really not so bitter if you find a way to notice
That I'm so frickin fond of you when I find you in small doses
Instead of feeling sad
I'll just be grateful for what I have
Rather than wracked by guilt
Don't give it a second thought
Just take the love you've got and savor it with me
I will not stop you when you leave
Whatever piece that you tear off me you can keep
I ain't gonna loose my mind waiting to heal
I'm sure that I'll be fine if you keep your end of the deal
There is nothing in this world that's more potent than to know
Even if the feeling comes or even easier still goes
I will survive on your love
Even if it's a small dose
I will survive on your love
Even if it's a small dose
