Words

I don't wanna be the nagging woman.
But you never take initiative.
And I want to build my life around you.
Standing still is not my way to live.

I wanna know every mold on your body.
I wanna be like husband and wife.
I wanna be your backbone, emotionally.
But you don't wanna talk about that kind of life.

You get mad about words.
House, marriage, kids.
I like to talk about my future.
And you should too, if you want to be in it.

How long can I hold my breath?
You're never ready, not even at twenty-seven.
When are you ever gonna take the first step?
Or will you just wait until I drag you along?

I always dream what if, what if,
You would take the initiative.
Be a man and stand for something.
But I always realize I am only dreaming.
