Micah Sommersmith

Cast:
Clairellyn Sommersmith as "Girl"
Micah Sommersmith as "Boy"

GIRL: Okay, I'm ready to go! ... What's wrong?

GIRL: You're looking at me weird. Is everything okay?

I feel like I'm walking on eggshells when I'm with you
I can't relax I can barely breathe
I can't be everything for you
Hell, I can't even be myself for myself sometimes

GIRL: Now you're just staring at me. Would you please say something?

*But on the other hand (I feel like I'm walking on eggshells when I'm with you)
You and I are so entwined (I can't relax I can barely breathe)
How can I imagine a life without you? (I can't be everything for you)
I might as well be dead (Hell, I can't even be myself for myself sometimes)

But do I only say that because I've grown accustomed
To having you around all the time?
No affection just complacency and boredom and fear of the unknown
And oh God what have we done to each other my love?

I love you (I feel like I'm walking on eggshells when I'm with you)
I hate you (I can't relax I can barely breathe)
I can't decide
I can't be everything for you
Hell, I can't even be myself for myself sometimes*

GIRL: What's going on, babe?

*I'm not a babe, I'm a full grown man,
I have thoughts, I have opinions and I have plans
That you wouldn't even know about
Because you don't care about me
You only care about you you you!

It's all about you you you! (I feel like I'm walking on eggshells when I'm with you)
I'm lost without you you you! (I can't relax I can barely breathe)
I gotta have you you you! (I can't be everything for you)
But I can't stand you you you! (Hell, I can't even be myself for myself sometimes)*

GIRL: I'm serious. What's the matter?
BOY: Uh, nothing, nothing, it's fine. We should go, we're going to be late.
