there are only so many ways to say
you're tired
you're angry
you're in love with me
you just talk to get in good with me
yes i'm the same one that thinks you're so pretty
and you know that i can not control
my very many pent up little feelings

can't you see i know you
i can hear you breathing
when you're sleeping
and i'm not there
i am here
but i know you're dreaming

and i'm wasting when you're wanting to go
i'm not ready when you're waiting to go
you're not gonna go
no you're not gonna go
hey i said you're not gonna go

there are simple things tied to little flakes of the truth that pass us by
why do we stare at the solid things?
why can't butterflies make us cry?
you drink cold drinks pre-prepared
while i try hard to pretend to care

and i'm wasted when you're ready to go
it's hard when you lead so slow
i'm slipping when when you're needing to go
i said you're not gonna go

baby baby you're not invited
it's not crazy here it's all silence
and i know what you really want
don't you think i'd look you up?
you know i'd look you up

and you know i know you honey
i can hear you breathing hard
when you're sleeping you dream loudly
and i'm not there
i am here
and i'm not there
i am here
i'm not there
but i know you're dreaming

i'm wasting away, baby baby
i'm falling away, darlin' darlin'
i'm getting away, honey honey
i'm slipping away, i'm slipping away, i'm slipping away

i'm wasted when you're ready to go
i'm tired when you're needing to go
i'm not letting you go
hey i said i'm not letting you go
yeah darlin' you're not gonna go
no you're not going anywhere
