(no subject)
it's lame to post lyrics. i realize this. but i'm going to do it anyway because these two songs are exactly what i'd like to say but can't express.
both of these songs are from 'the kind strangers' who added me on myspace. you can find them on my page and listen to them. i think they're really amazing songs, obviously... and they say what i'm thinking, so yeah. now i need to find a song that says 'stop walking by me like you don't know who i am because it really hurts'.
ABSENT PRESENT
so long
summer is here
it's time that i might reappear
long gone
winter moves on
i wasted my time with you near
my my
i think of you now
i still feel you lying beside me
a fool a fool
i’ll never be again
i wish i’d never felt you beside me
oh how you linger
oh how you last
how you overstay the welcome i gave you
i never could have known
how your memory lives on
makes me wish that i never had met you
it’s your absence that keeps you present
you’re never more around than when you are not around
you’re never more around than when you’re nowhere to be found
i swear sometimes
i hear you in the hum
i hear you on the car radio
and every song about moving on
reminds me i can’t let you go
oh it’s against my will
and oh how i love you still
this is my heart growing fonder
oh i should fight for you
but i should do what’s right for you
i shouldn’t hold on any longer
you’re never more here than when you are nowhere near
YOU DON'T WANT ANYONE
maybe somebody made some promises to you i couldn’t keep
maybe somebody made no promises at all
maybe that’s what you wanted was no attachments baby
maybe that’s what you were after all along
maybe somebody did things to you i just couldn’t quite do
maybe somebody knew exactly the right places
maybe i couldn’t make you shudder when i touched you baby
i’m not gonna lie to myself if you won’t lie to me
when you say
if you don’t want me you don’t want anyone
maybe somebody treated you a little colder than i could
maybe you even liked it that way
some people do
maybe i should have pulled away to get you pushing harder
but i held my breath, my distance, everything for you
maybe i showed myself or maybe i gave too much to you
for all i know i wasn’t giving you enough
maybe you were scared to show me yours or give me more
i don’t know but i know that you were scared
but i’m not scared anymore
when you say
if you don’t want me you don’t want anyone
