You say I don't keep you in mind,
I try so hard to find the time.
It hurts me so much to know, that all that's surfacing is you wanting to let go.
You're pulling at your last string and I'm slowly trying to stretch that thing.
But you keep saying you're alone,
Isn't it that everytime you need me, don't I pick up the phone?
Don't compare me to what you've been used to,
Because I'm here listening to you.
But you feel otherwise, and I'm not quite surprised.
I don't even know why you're holding on so strong, we both have done some wrong.
But as I write this, tears run down my face, because I know I can be easily replaced.
In your heart there seems there's not enough room;
For you to keep me in there without blowing a fuse.
I say I can try my best to change but my personality cannot be rearranged.
If you love me like you say you do, you wouldn't take such things to heart;
Things that barely ever play a big part.
I can't stop crying at the thought of us falling out of sync,
I keep asking God to help me think.
I'm getting tired now and don't want to be here anymore.
I'm asking can someone take me home.
You see 'cause you could be happy with someone who waits on you hand foot instead of someone who stresses you out to the point you want to give up.
I'll save you the trouble of it all.
I wont show my face, I'll make sure not to fall.
'Cause that's what started this in the first place.
You can have your space.
