I'm not asking for your heart
you would never let it go
you've been working way too hard
keeping me from coming too close
and I need your help
it's harder than I'd thought it'd be
I'm knocking down your walls
while you're tearing out a part of me
so go ahead and make your move
tell me what you feel inside
I know I'm about to lose
but I'm not ready for goodbye
and I tried to explain
but you won't hear the end of it
so i guess you're giving up
a cold that will not break
a pill that I won't take
words that you won't say anymore
a sun that will not rise
a shame that I can't hide
a sickness deep inside without a cure
cause you're not sure
so are we better on our own?
cause the dream of you and me
has never really taken hold
and I think that we both know it
I can't carry all the weight
of the blame for your mistakes
so I'll lay this burden down
and walk away from it
