I wish I was spared from feeling so scared of walking on up to you.
Quickly, I stare at you right there. I know what I should do.
But now you leave, and I’m relieved. I got excuses that I believe.
But now you leave, and I’m relieved. I got excuses that I believe.
But now you leave, and I’m relieved. I got excuses that I believe.
But now you leave, and I’m relieved. I got excuses that I believe.
I wish I was spared from feeling so scared of walking on up to you.
But I’ve been here before, and I did something more than waste a chance to meet you.
So now I breathe, and then I leave the spot I sat in where I saw you.
So now I breathe, and then I leave the spot I sat in where I saw you.
So now I breathe, and then I leave the spot I sat in where I saw you.
So now I breathe, and then I leave the spot I sat in where I saw you.

Your hands around the flame.
My fingers are burnt.
My chest getting tight.
And I don’t feel right.
I could talk to you.
You say so could you.
But I haven’t done.
What I been meaning to do.
I said it was just hanging out but those are words that just came out of my mouth.
You know what I really want. You know what I really want.
I said it was just hanging out but those are words that just came out of my mouth.

But I haven’t done.

I was different then and I’m different now. I don’t see you the same way.
Promises are promises only when you make me wanna stay.
It’s not me, it’s just you. It’s the things that you do. What you yell at my face when I say that I won’t.
And I don’t take shit from no one, ‘cause my wrongs are here to stay.
And I’ll try ‘til I die, to be my own, to be my own way.
Don’t care what you say.
Don’t care if you stay.
And if I do,
I know I shouldn’t.
All the while, you left a void when you went away.
All the while, it’s a void I shouldn’t replace.
I don’t need anyone but I want somebody.
I don’t need anyone but I want somebody.
Don’t care what you say.
Don’t care if you stay.
And if I do,
I know I shouldn’t.
You aren’t anything to me.
You are the one who wouldn’t just let me be.
I don’t need anyone but I want someone unlike you.
Don’t care what you say.
Don’t care if you stay.
And if I do,
I know I shouldn’t.

Now that you left,
there’s an emptiness,
And I’m trying to fill it.
Don’t know what to do,
With my mind.
In down time, I just think of you.
Now that you left,
there’s an emptiness,
And I’m trying to fill it.
Don’t know what to do,
With my mind.
In down time, I just think of you.

Although I know that girls get busy, I still get insecure when you don’t reply.
But I’m assured, I was assured when you said it’s a chore being with your guy.
Oh you just want, you want something more.
Seems like you wanna be mine.
Oh you just want, you want something more.
Oh babe, I’ll make you mine.
In due time. In due time.
In due time. In due time.
Seal the deal, kiss the girl.
Seal the deal, kiss the girl.
Come clean, baby come clean. Around the bush, there’s been too much beating.
Come clean, baby come clean. When you do, it won’t be cheating.
Oh you just want, you want something more.
Seems like you wanna be mine.
Oh you just want, you want something more.
Oh babe, I’ll make you mine.
In due time. In due time.
In due time. In due time.
Seal the deal, kiss the girl.
Seal the deal, kiss the girl.

I played a song, she checked her phone. I sang the hook, she didn’t look.
But walking with her friends and me, she sang it, had me smiling.
We all sat down for poker night. I won a hand and she was like,
“I’m watching you,” and stared at me. For a good few seconds, I counted three.
You can’t expect me, not to think something,
When these past months me and you said nothing.
Now tonight, you started running,
Through my mind not from my eyes.
I asked her out with no reply. I told myself, “at least I tried.”
Sent at 7:55, not seen by her til the next night.
She said that it all sounded great, but she didn’t think he’d be okay.
By him I mean her boyfriend. I’m not gonna sit here and pretend,
For a moment, I wasn’t hoping, that I knew this before we’d spoken.
Facebook official this whole time, I wouldn’t have tried, wouldn’t waste my time.
Behind a screen, I confessed.
Online, we’re mean, but I expected.
Someone to agree with me. Wouldn’t you be salty?
Someone to agree with me. Wouldn’t you be salty?
But you opened up my eyes. You made me realize.
But you opened up my eyes. You made me realize.
I’m done. I’m done.
I’m done. I’m done.
It’s none of my business, it’s her life. Who knows what, she’s free to decide.
It’s none of my business, it’s her life. I’m just saying it would be nice.

I’m the happiest I’ve been in my life.
And it’s because you’re mine.
You’re the one I’m thinking of.
If anyone asks who do you love.
I’m the happiest I’ve been in my life.
And it’s because you’re mine.
You’re the one I’m thinking of.
If anyone asks who do you love.

Girl, I know where you’re working at.
But I’m holding myself back.
From seeing you. From seeing you.
‘Cause I know if you don’t text back.
You don’t want me like that.
You don’t want me. You don’t want me.
I made you laugh. I held your hand.
We dug our toes into the sand.
I held your hips. I pulled you in.
I made you laugh. I held your hand.
We dug our toes into the sand.
I held your hips. I pulled you in.
I’m still creepin' on your page.
Every picture I still save.
They remind me. They remind me.
And I still see you around.
I just keep on looking down.
When you walk by. When you walk by.
I made you laugh. I held your hand.
We dug our toes into the sand.
I held your hips. I pulled you in.
I made you laugh. I held your hand.
We dug our toes into the sand.
I held your hips. I pulled you in.

She wasn’t hot but she wasn’t cold.
Talking shit, she could hold her own.
I was surprised that she texted back.
Asked her out, she was down for that.
But I want her, need her, too much, much.
But I want her, need her, ‘cause she’s all I got.
All, all, all I got.
All, all, all I got.
Thought I was good, but I wasn’t bad.
Shit happened, but I never had.
A lot of girls to pick and choose.
As I am, I’m bound to lose.
‘Cause I want her, need her, too much, much.
‘Cause I want her, need her, ‘cause she’s all I got.
All, all, all I got.
All, all, all I got.
All, all, all I got.
All, all, all I got.
All, all, all I got.
All, all, all I got.

She’s moving awfully fast,
And I don’t think I can last.
She’s like a crosswalk, expecting me to cross,
In five seconds or less.
Give me twenty at best.
She’s making me kinda shy, with them lusting eyes.
And I’m not, I usually am the one to be told,
“You’re moving too fast.”
But I’m caught, by her things that rhyme with,
Bits of glass.
She’s not thirsty but parched.
For some body, not a heart.
She’s been walking for miles and she ain’t had a drink in a while.
She’s not thirsty but parched.
For some body, not a heart.
She thinks I’m an oasis and she wants more than a kiss.
She thinks I’m an oasis and she wants more than a kiss.
Now she’s touching me, and it’s easy to see,
That she wants me, that she wants me.
And my pants are like a mirror, and she sees herself clearer,
When she’s staring at me, when she hears me sing.
And I’m not, I usually am the one to be told,
“You’re moving too fast.”
But I’m caught, by her things that rhyme with,
Bits of glass.
She’s not thirsty but parched.
For some body, not a heart.
She’s been walking for miles and she ain’t had a drink in a while.
She’s not thirsty but parched.
For some body, not a heart.
She thinks I’m an oasis and she wants more than a kiss.
She thinks I’m an oasis and she wants more than a kiss.
