lyrics
since you've shown me a sign of life
this feeling comes and goes
but it's here tonight
this time the hurt isn't worth
putting up the fight
I wish my head could tell my heart
how to get it right
I thought I'd be someone you'd love by now
should I keep on waiting
while you keep fading?
I keep holding on to nothing
with every move I make I only push you away
why must I kill everything that I try to save?
some want it all but it's only you I crave
with every word I write I'm only digging my grave
I thought I'd be someone you'd love by now
I'd give you anything you want
but you want anything but me
you have everything you need
and that's anyone but me
