Leaving
It seems that we just can't
Make this work anymore.
I can't say I'm sorry
Because I'm really not.
I just feel bad, 'cause
You weren't ready for the truth.
It wasn't my right to push this on you,
It wasn't my right to make you think about
Anyone but yourself for a change.
I take your abuse, and
I take your friends' abuse, and
I take your parent's abuse, and
Well, everyone's got a breaking point.
So it looks like this is goodbye
And it looks like you care, but
I know you're just relieved
'Cause you don't have to think
About me, about us, ever again.
You hide yourself in your little shell
Tell yourself I'm just too demanding
I'm sorry if a little dignity
Is too much to ask for.
I'm sorry if a little dignity
Is too much to ask for.
I'm sorry if a little attention
Is too much to ask for.
I'm sorry if a little respect
Is too much to ask for.
I'm sorry if knowing where I stand
Against every other distraction
Is too much for you to handle.
It seems like we already know it's over
You just bide your time to tell me
You just bide your time
'Cause stagnation is so much easier.
So I stand here waiting
And fold my arms over my chest
Because you're not running to me
You just stand there
"Thinking."
