to be a different song tonight,
I've played the same one for too long
Now I've been trying to pull you
from the deepest parts of me
You're still lying in my crook,
you're still sleeping in my bed
You see, my body disagrees
does not reduce the aching
I can't seem to stop the shaking
Will I do you right, will I do you wrong
Will I leave you for another stop
Writing you songs, will it be your girl?
If it's over without starting,
why do these things begin
Should maybe put my contacts in,
a clearer vision held my head
See the world through straighter eyes
and help me leave my troubled mind
Would the tears still blur my sight?
What does it help if I am blind?
Though I push these thoughts away,
I can't keep what's there
Cause my memories disagree
with the choices I've been making
with the chances I keep taking
Will I stay with you forever?
Will you wish I was gone?
You're tattooed on my life now,
it won't hurt to remove you
Either way, either way, either way,
Say the word forever and I will run away
But say that you are leaving
But say that you are leaving
Hope distance helps the heart forget
The dreams it never got to live
Cause I won't make the same mistakes
Even though my weak heart breaks
Could it be there's nothing new
I'm better off still loving you
Give it up and let it go,
But see, my body disagrees
with the choices I've been making
does not reduce the aching
I can't seem to stop the shaking
Well, I'd dream about another,
will you be glad if I'm gone?
If it's over without starting,
why do these things begin?
