lyrics

I thought you wanted me
Thought you'd commit but I should have seen
You stop rewind and play your emotions
Stood in the pouring rain
On my own but you never came
Sick of your stupid games
Just take your hold off me

The next time you call me up and beg for me
To come and see you
I'll be a little bit smarter than you wanted

Now I'm running on empty
When you tell me you needed me
Said you wanted to be free
Then tell me everything we could have been
You can't make your mind up
Don't know what you want
You're messing with my head
Again
Like I mean nothing

Make me think I'm wrong
For standing up for myself
Look in a mirror
No time to stop and be still
Let go of me for real

Its not enough even though you asked for me to stay
I just cant wait
You came a little bit later than I needed

I'll settle down some how
Cause I need it now

I don't want to wait
But I don't want this to go to waste
