| I swallow hard because I know
|
| That what comes next will hurt
|
| (You more than me)
|
| I bite my lip to try to stop it from shaking
|
| The teeth have broken the skin
|
| And the blood tastes cold to me After all those nights you kept me warm,
|
| I"d hold my breath just to hear you sleep
|
| I must admit I saw it coming,
|
| The air between us had gotten harder yet to breathe.
|
| I"d run away if I could help it,
|
| But I can"t remember to forget your face
|
| You can say my heart has changed,
|
| But it"s my will you"ve beaten down
|
| I"d kiss you now, but I fear my caustic tongue
|
| Would only serve to salt your wounds
|
| I must admit I saw it coming,
|
| The air between us had gotten harder yet to breathe.
|
| I"d run away if I could help it,
|
| But I can"t remember to forget your face
|
| You are as beautiful as ever,
|
| Yet I"m starting to resent your smile
|
| Because it"s killing me to say this,
|
| But I"m dying inside to leave
|
| It"s a place we"ve never been,
|
| It"s a waste to keep it in It means little to you but the world to me |
