Watch my life pass me by
in the rearview mirror
Pictures frozen in time
are becoming clearer
I don't wanna waste another day
Stuck in the shadow of my mistakes
yeah
'cause I want you
and I feel you
crawling underneath my skin
like a hunger
like a burning
to find the place I've never been
now I'm broken
and I'm fading
I'm half the man I thought I would be
But you can have
What's left of me
I've been dying inside
Little by little
Nowhere to go
But goin' out of my mind
In endless circles
runnin' from myself until
You gave me a reason for standing still
And I want you
and I feel you
crawling underneath my skin
like a hunger
like a burning
to find the place I've never been
now I'm broken
and I'm fading
I'm half the man I thought I would be
But you can have
What's left of me
Falling faster
Barely breathing
Give me somethin' to believe in
Tell me it's not all in my head
Take what's left of this man
Make me whole once again
'cause I want you
and I feel you
crawling underneath my skin
like a hunger
like a burning
to find the place I've never been
now I'm broken
and I'm fading
I'm half the man I thought I would be
You can have
All there's left
Yeah, yeah, yeah
What's left of me
I've been dying inside you see
I'm going out of my mind
Out of my mind
I'm just runnin' in circles all the time
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Of me
Just runnin' in circles IN MY MIND
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Take what's left of me
Why do you say the wrong things?
Why hide everything inside?
Cause I can't let you see me cry?
always trying to make it seem like I'm going to be ok...
When has it ever been like that?
never...
I've never been ok...
I never will be ok.
I've tried.
It's not there for me.
I thought it would be different this time.
We're two very different people.
I guess meant for another place or time.
Figures it would be like this when tomorrow would be six months.
I've shed more than a few tears.
I just can't let you see.
The pieces of me.
I wish I could pick up life where I left it six months ago.
Take it all back.
Not because it care any less...
Because...
This time I was happy.
I have flaws.
But...
Maybe I just need someone would will see them
From a fresh perspective.
Someone would isn't connected to my past.
Someone who doesn't know what all has happened.
I guess there has been someone who was right all along.
Figures it would come to this.
I wish it was fall.
When eveything dies...
I take time to grow.
I miss the smell.
The touch and taste.
I'm not independent.
I'm tried of acting like I am.
I'm white flagging it.
I'm done.
I love you...you know it.
I always will.
I have since day one.
I've been crazy about you.
I still am...
Why can't I just be ok.
Because I don't have you.
But I can't be your friend.
It doesn't work like that.
You hold me accountable for all my past mistakes.
So now...
I have to hold you accountable for my past.
Because you can't be like eveyone else.
