I wanna hang on but I need to let you go
Just pick up this phone and let you know..
But I don\'t know how to say it
I don\'t know how you gonna take it
I don\'t think we\'ll ever make it
You\'re talking to me and you\'re talking to him
I don\'t think that\'s all I think it\'s them
I\'m not competing for a star role of a film
I think the light of this fire is getting dim
You have too much going on for me
I\'m not the only one that\'s plain to see
I hoped the only one you wanted was me
Now I know you\'re just looking to include me
You say you wear your heart on a sleeve..
I keep mine in a box and locked,
to keep it from being beat and hardened into a rock..
You say you want to open it and I wanted you to, but I don\'t think you can..
Feel free to stand there and knock but this heart is all that\'s left of this broken man.
This isn\'t easy for me I\'m not out to hurt you
But how do I know if anything you said is true
You say you love me but you really love the way guys look at you
I thought you were looking for love, but I see now you\'re just looking for something new.
I gotta say goodbye, and from inside this box I still love you.
