Tell me what to say Help me find a way To catch your eye Oh how I've tried for you to see me The doubt kicks in I'm stuttering again as your brown eyes reflect a nervous guy And I've got no chance Even if I bought you flowers You still wouldn't know my name Even if I told you everything I know you wouldn't feel the same I just keep my hopes up high but I don't know why I Play the same old game Of you and I As I lie awake I reflect on mistakes I went to slow And now I'll never know if things would have gone my way So I forgot what you said I turned away instead To ease the pain But it was all in vain Cause now I'm back where I first started and Even if I bought you flowers You still wouldn't know my name Even if I told you everything I know you wouldn't feel the same I just keep my hopes up high but I don't know why I Play the same old game Of you and I I hope it hurts to find your permanence You never felt a thing for this And I don't know why I hurt myself by coming to hit and miss again Even if I bought you flowers You still wouldn't know my name Even if I said it all Even if I bought you flowers You still wouldn't know my name Even if I told you everything I know you wouldn't feel the same I just keep my hopes up high but I don't know why I Play the same old game Of you and I (I hope it hurts to find your permanence You never felt a thing for this And I don't know why I hurt myself by coming back again I hope it hurts to find your permanence You never felt a thing for this)

I'd like to think that this wasn't a waste of my time I can't forget the morning breath that you gave with a smile I wish you'd miss this like the summer in the winter I've been spending every minute not convincing you to finish what we Started years ago When we were young and didn't know What we were getting ourselves into Struggle to breathe and now I'm barely alive Hit by a wave for the hundredth time Still miss the days when we felt alright But that was then, now you're on the other side Told myself that I'm just bad luck, but for you I was never enough How did this happen and when did it get this way I know I made a few mistakes but I'm trying to make It up to you; won't you let me through your walls Won't you let me through your walls Cause I won't give up on you if it's the last thing that I do Struggle to breathe and now I'm barely alive Hit by by a wave for the hundredth time Still miss the days when we felt alright But that was then now you're on the other side Told myself that I'm just bad luck But for you I was never enough Don't you Tell me that there's nothing left When we both know That we won't let go Of all the nights we shared And all the times we cared Too much, too much

Sixteen with the pressure to be perfect Told me you were anything but worth it I know you lack the self esteem And nothing's left but the broken dreams Of everything we used to be No one knows what she's been told So for now I'll say goodbye Cause I just can't take another lie Heart of some, so frozen So I guess this is what it's like to be the last one with a dream at sixteen Silent as you screamed You were never what you seemed to be It's clear to me Give it up, we all know that you're nothing now Make it up, we don't care guess who's laughing now So sick of the same old problems Try so hard but you just can't solve them Well its all you've ever knows Forget it now your cover's blown No one knows what she's been told So for now I'll say goodbye Cause I just can't take another lie Heart of stone, so frozen So i guess this is what it's like to be the last one with a dream at sixteen Black and blue by her own design Clever words do hide your lies See right through your cheap disguise She loves the attention of a thousand eyes No one knows what she's been told So for now I'll say goodbye Cause I just can't take another lie Heart of stone, so frozen So I guess this is what it's like to be the last one with a dream at sixteen

And when we fall I'm sure you'll be there to see it all And I can only hope that you'll be mine It was was never my intention to let you down But you always seemed to find your way around Your problems, responsibilities You were nothing more to me than a memory breaking hearts and crushing dreams That's what you did to me And when we fall I'm sure you'll be there to see it all And I can only hope that you'll be mine We wish for the best and none of the rest You gave me away only to say goodbye The way you walked, the way you talked to me I should have known from the start That you were no good for me Cause I've been waiting days and minutes for your call But you never seemed to care at all I'm slowly fading away And when we fall I'm sure you'll be there to see it all And I can only hope that you'll be mine We wish for the best and none of the rest You gave me away only to say goodbye Woah oh oh Please don't go woah oh oh We wish for the best and none of the rest Woah oh oh Please don't go woah oh oh You gave me away only to say goodbye And when we fall I'm sure you'll be there to see it all And I can only hope that you'll be mine And when we fall I'm sure you'll be there to see it all And I can only hope that you'll be mine We wish for the best and none of the rest You gave me away only to say goodbye

Walk Away 04:17
Don't tell me that I'm young and naive When you were everything to me But you don't want me back You just want to fill my gap I won't play this game Replace everything I've said But don't you say I never loved you again How could you do this to me Was it really that easy To walk away, and you walked away Now I'm left here without a thing Does it make you happy To walk away, and you walked away from me I spend all my time alone in my room And dwell on everything that used to Make me feel alive Now I'm so dead inside But I'll just lie and tell you I am fine Replace everything I've said But don't you say I never loved you again How could you do this to me Was it really that easy To walk away, and you walked away Now I'm left here without a thing Does it make you happy To walk away, and you walked away from me Maybe we just needed some time to Fall apart, to find some day that We fall right back into place So I'll be here; you know where to find me I won't be far, but I'll stay away from you If you want me to How could you do this to me Was it really that easy To walk away, and you walked away Now I'm left here without a thing Does it make you happy To walk away, and you walked away from me
