I slipped in through your cracks But not into your heart I knew you didn’t want this (And I’m trying not to) I knew it from the start who you are and the smile you carry With your tight jean shorts Makes it impossible not to think of you I wish this was easier but don’t we all This’ll be a long hard fall You’re all around me but no where to be found Maybe things would be better If I made no sound When it’s right or wrong and I’m wrong around you Why can’t I get it through my head that we will never be together You’re on my mind and in my heart, and a part of you will never leave me. I wonder if I should walk away and make this easier You said it’s not me, and I know that’s the truth but I can’t help but but feel like there’s something else too You dropped me harder than a bad habit Now my hearts broken on the floor I probably deserve it I’ve done it before My mind is telling me to move on But my heart is sore I learned from you, you have to say it right. Even when that means, leaving it at goodnight You’ve opened my eyes but narrowed my view You’re probably trying not to hurt me, so i can’t hurt you. You said you loved me after all. But will you be there to cushion the fall Things started off great I lost where it all went wrong Now I’m sitting here writing this song When I can’t do it right, no matter what at all Maybe it’s time I realize That’s not who we are As earthquakes shake, the ground between us uneven, You said I was your type, you acted the part, and said those 3 little words before I even thought of it. We talked everyday that we were apart Now we’re back together and I’m pulling teeth I think neither of us realized what this actually was And the realization of that killed our buzz I see your eyes gaze at me You’re words and actions don’t match You burn my skin like an egg frying on a hot sidewalk I don’t know how to act around you. I need to be myself, why was that so hard to believe that’s not the person you want me to be From stepping up, I stepped up, to standing up at the plate. I figured at least all these games would finally stop The lingering question, if you’d return in the same Was answered in the silence as winter came You can only beat a dead horse for so long I respect myself, So I had to move on I had to keep stepping on away from you You put me in a box Up upon your wall Right next to the others on display You stopped noticing me Or maybe for board I thought this could be something At least this was a helpful lesson But you can only beat a dead horse for so long You’ve changed my life forever I know I’m not the same Though your impression lasts I’m not playing this game what happened? Did I not step up enough for you to see the me you wanted me to be? Is it just like that? The ground so uneven it’s frustrating The constant thought of you in my mind is unbearable I want you out like you wanted me. But you’re engrained in me and I can’t help it. I wish I was more like you So I could forget you toon
