For all the good you say it does
It feels no better when you`ve had your say
You may believe it`s just because
The words get colder when you`ve gone away
I thought I understood
What I was to you...
I don`t want to feel this way
I don`t want to say I`m just a friend
I don`t want to wait around here
`Cause you don`t want to feel no pain again
We just lie about it...
As we become shadows of ourselves
Some may fear commited lives
I sure am one of them without you
Does it come to you as some surprise
I laid the ground beneath to doubt you
Was it ever girl
Something you could hold...
I don`t want to feel this way
I don`t want to say I`m just a friend
I don`t want to wait around here
`Cause you don`t want to feel no pain again
We just lie about it...
As we become shadows of ourselves
I don`t want to look away
I don`t want to be the one denied
It ain`t no fault of mine
If someone somewhere told you lies
But we don`t talk about it
We just become shadows of ourselves
