I’m better off guarding the key to my heart
Than intrepidly handing it off to you
Once upon a time a sincere laugh & smile
Always seemed to be worthwhile
Denying I care has gotten me nowhere
I've been continually lying to myself
Perfecting benignity hasn't set me free
I'm still trapped in your mind.
[Just one look, just one meaningless stare
Cheats me into believing that your heart's really there]
Go ahead, tell me exactly what I want to hear
So I'll be okay when you decide to disappear
Tell me maybe when you really mean no
...That's how it's always been
Use the slightest touch to break my senses down
So I'll be fine when you're never around
Tell me that your actions are all for show
....That's how it's always been.
Test my lies; take me by utter surprise
Persuade me to sway to a familiar song
Your persistant ability to knowingly taunt me
Has driven me to do only [wrong]...
...But I've changed my mind, I'm learning to find
That some things are better left unsaid
But whatever echoes in your eyes; it's still left unread
[Just one glance, just one meaningful stare
Has my heart believing that there's something there]
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
So, come on, tell me exactly what I want to hear
So I'll be okay when you decide to disappear
Tell me maybe when you really mean no
...That's how it's always been
Use the slightest touch to break my senses down
So I'll be fine when you're never around
Tell me that your actions are all for show
....That's how it's always been♥
