It's strange

to see how we approach the subject
mostly because we do so with caution
i'm not sure what to say because i don't
want you to take it in the wrong way
you don't know what to say because
of the implications that are involved
i don't know what i'm supposed to do
or how i'm supposed to act
or what i'm supposed to say
or if there is anything to do or say
