|
I had so much to give you |
|
You threw it all away |
|
So I hole up in this corner |
|
Act like I've nothing to say |
|
Knowing as soon as you ask me |
|
If there's something wrong |
|
I might blow up any minute |
|
You'll say, "I knew it all along" |
|
Yeah, he's just another young cynic |
|
We get them all the time |
|
If he just knew how to channel |
|
All that anger he'd be fine |
|
So I sit with all these wishes |
|
And dreams dying on the vine |
|
Knowing I could make you happy |
|
For a minute with a lie |
|
Soon you'd see right through me |
|
And like the rest |
|
I'd blow away' |
|
Cause I wasn't what you wanted |
|
And I don't make you feel okay |
|
Say if he just had kept some edge |
|
Man, it look so polished now |
|
It's bad, |
|
I remember one time now |
|
You should've heard the things he said |
|
And it all seemed so reckless |
|
And I felt just like a kid |
|
Now he makes me nervous |
|
I think I'll look somewhere else instead |
|
So I sit here in this corner |
|
So afraid to make a move |
|
If I start to look embarrassed |
|
It's because |
|
I know you knew |
|
All the bravery, all the anger |
|
Was just covering up the fear |
|
That I'd end up in some corner |
|
Now I sit here |
