| 'Cause my mind, it speaks in volumes but these lips won’t make a sound
|
| Are you still there, or did you run away like everybody else?
|
| I wouldn’t blame you
|
| It’s a shame you couldn’t find the grip you held
|
| But I guess I’ll never be the one you said you’d always need
|
| Is this everything you wanted or am I less than you expect?
|
| Does this persistence have you crawling for something more than I can give?
|
| Is this everything you wanted, am I less than you expect?
|
| 'Cause this foundation’s failing and I can’t seem to find my step
|
| Every word that you said, in every letter I read
|
| Convinces me of everything I thought I’d never achieve
|
| But you committed to this, picked up what I always missed
|
| And guided me to everything I thought I ought to be
|
| Look at me, think back and ponder on the choices never made
|
| 'Cause I’m waiting for the opportunity to tear out the page
|
| Is this everything you wanted or am I less than you expect?
|
| Does this persistence have you crawling for something more than I can give?
|
| Is this everything you wanted, am I less than you expect?
|
| 'Cause this foundation’s failing and I can’t seem to find my step
|
| Step back, erase myself from everything you’ve ever held
|
| I’m letting go, become all I know cause I’m a nervous wreck without you
|
| But it’s worse when I’m around you so let me sink, so let me fall into the
|
| tension you still hold
|
| Is this everything you wanted, am I less than you expect?
|
| Does this persistence have you long for more than I can give?
|
| Is this everything you want, am I less than you expect?
|
| 'Cause this foundation’s failing and I can’t seem to find my step |
